There is one more method to increase your keying efficiency.
Again, most of you probably already use it, so forgive me for
going over what is, for you, old ground. For the others,
create and use aliases. That is, program your computer
to accept certain character strings to mean others.
For instance,
pn
to equal postnews, or
m
to mean mail, etc. Some commands, of course, are several
words long, and thus the stroke savings would be much more
significant in those cases, expecially if one is talking about
moving to a directory several levels down. For instance,
cde
might be the alias for
cd gloss/concop/example. And so on.
Hope this helps someone out that.
