I work in two separate areas: GUIs and CLIs. GUIs for graphical stuff, but mainly CLIs for most of my work. The command-line is just more usable for my everyday purposes. Note that I use a graphical Desktop to allow many CLI xterms to be open at once. When it comes to programming, I use quite a few xterms at the one time. That means there is very little mouse use, and that's mainly to switch which particular xterm is open. For most of the time, I'm using just the keyboard. A text-editor for coding, gcc (more or less) for compiling, then leaving that xterm open with all the compile-errors plainly visible, while I use an xterm or two for the next set of coding with a text-editor. Need to reference a header-file while you're coding? Display it in yet another xterm. I sometimes have half a dozen open xterms for one task. Works for Me (TM).
