The real problem with keyboarding is the TERRIBLE lack of consistency. Apart from a very few commands, most applications seem to just randomly select keyboard letters to map to tasks based on the first letter of the english word. When I switch to a german keyboard, the key stroke commands change again! I use my apple, and things are different again. It does not work. A UI has to be consistent, and keyboard commands are extremely inconsistent. Look at the vim style commands and compare them to the windows style commands. And another problem with keyboard commands is that there is no hint. How many people have gotten stuck in vim because the interface is not acting as expected? Using a gui to shut down an App, I look for an X and press it. Using a keyboard, it could be ctrl+q, ctrl+c, ESC, :q!, Alt+F4, Alt+B (German Systems), Alt+Q (English Systems) or exit(). It's TERRIBLE user interface design to have so many different ways of performing the same action on the same operating system. F1 works because it's always Help. The arrow keys work because they always mean the same thing. That's how keystroke commands should work: One combination, one meaning - all the time and everywhere! So when you learn that stuff, you know it. I don't want to invest my time in learning app specific shortcuts for applications that I don't use that often. And that are liable to change anytime. The state of keyboard control of software is broken, and has been broken for a long time. My suggestion for the fix - an OLED keyboard that switches to "command mode" when a button is pressed. So the commands are always in the same position with all apps, all layouts, all languages and stay consistent.
