To me those ex commands feel more like a standard library than a DSL. But I know very little about vimscript and I’m happy to be corrected.

I have used TouchKeys on Windows, which doesn't do exactly what you ask for, but is also pretty nice: it makes Space into a modifier key, and you can configure the combinations. E.g. Space+J could be cursor down, or Space+G could be e

I apologize for being dense. Are you saying that informed people will advise against health? I think you meant something different but I’m too dense to understand.

Emily's point is that NLP researchers tend to describe only how English is used, not how other languages are used.

5000 sq ft?? My family of four lives in 1000 and it’s only a bit cramped. Each kid has their own room. I knew homes in the US are larger than in Europe but I’m surprised about the difference.

I use hs.hotkey.modal to make Alt-Space pop up a modal window that tells me what I can do. Various keys open specific apps, e.g. Return opens Finder and Space opens iTerm. Other keys move and resize the currently window to specific areas.

The page shows some faces, and the faces look at the mouse pointer. For example, faces below the mouse pointer look up, faces above it look down.

Interesting! I always use Cmd-Shift-/, which focuses the search field in the help menu, and Ctrl-b and Ctrl-f do not escape from there. But focusing the menu bar with Ctrl-F2 does indeed allow me to use Ctrl-f and Ctrl-b. And after h

It’s not about the size for me. Sure the full height inverted T is easy to use. The half height inverted T also works. But the one that isn’t inverted T is difficult.

It doesn’t work in the menus for example. The cursor keys are still important.

The lady and right keys are easy. But up and down are difficult. With the half height left and right keys it’s easier to find the up and down keys. The down key is between left and right and the up key is an island (or a peninsula at least)

Right. For each purpose, add a new field and ask the user. I wonder how many fields would be the end result. I have no idea.

The problem here is that you might need more than one "name" like string. One goes into the address of an envelope, but if the letter starts with "Dear" or "Hello", then what follows is usually a different nam

By moving from a non-Latin script to a Latin script, you destroy puns, and I feel that destroys the culture, too. It is too big a price to pay.
