A number of people, including Dave M6RUG, have raised the question of
using WSJT-X when only one hand is reasonably functional. However,
single-handed use of an interface is a *general* problem when using a
PC, and Linux, OS/X and Windows all have approaches which ease the
problems for users for whom double-handed use &c. &c. is an issue.
In the case of Ubuntu Linux there is information at
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Accessibility#Mobility_Impairments
which explains how sticky control keys may be set up and used, such that
single-handed operation is possible, for quite complicated control
sequences. More elaborate arrangements are possible. Similarly, other
OSes, these days, allow for adaptations to the needs of the user.
For a single-handed person, none of those adaptations are likely to be
as easy to use as for a single-handed person but, with persistence, the
adaptations will allow the job to be done.
It is also the case that with *any* user interface there is very rarely
any truly successful one-size-fits-all solution, even for those who are
fully dextrous.
