I find that even moving to the F1-F12 row is sometimes slower than hitting a key combination (whether with a prefix key or a modifier) somewhere closer. Back when I used Caps Lock as both Escape (am vim user) and my i3 modifier I could keep my hands on the home row when switching windows. (I'm on oS X now...)
The layout posted would be useful for launching apps and resizing windows but I can't imagine using it for copy and paste or typing things like "px".
- err4nt 11y agoI test in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari, so I'm constantly doing this set of actions: - Focus address bar - Copy URL - Launch Firefox - Focus address bar - Paste URL - Press Enter - Launch Safari - Focus address bar - Paste URL - Press Enter So to be able to make that a sequence of 10 button taps I can do in rapid succession without even looking at the screen or touching the mouse does save a bit of time. It's primarily for web testing, more than text editing.
- semi-extrinsic 11y agoWith Pentadactyl (vim-like plugin) for Firefox, copying a URL is simply pressing the "y" key, and paste+goto URL is "p". I believe Chrome has similar plugins, dunno about Safari.
