Imagine Linux & You - Customizing Shortcuts
Shortcuts are like elevators. It gets hefty things done on simple press of a button. It is much better, faster and efficient then the other alternative: Stairs..!! or in our case pointing and clicking.
But it is sad to know people often don't use shortcuts. Maybe they are difficult to remember or simply impractical to be a shortcut or both. The most outstanding example would be "Alt+F4" for closing a window. I mean come-on, do you really have to stretch your fingers 4" wide not to mention searching for F4 key (hidden among smallest keys on keyboard) for doing an task so frequent ?
