Thanks for the suggestion meine!

I'm old. I'm old school. October of '93 when I started with vim and Linux there was no
GUI, only the ttys on Alt-F1 - Alt-F7. There was no mouse either as I usually used my
two serial comports as modem connections (PS2 didn't come out until later and I couldn't
afford a Cyclades).

The mouse is useful sometimes. Usually when I'm attempting to scroll one of the right
windows up or down without moving my cursor from the place I'm at.

So, yes, I use the keyboard about 90% of the time.

That other 10% was beginning to bug me ;)!
