  Maybe this is caused by too many Use Perl; entries? Now, seriously, try doing some gymnastics off-keyboard. Also, try not to work too much in laptops. The small keyboards don't help.

    But all I have is a laptop! :-)

      An external keyboard is not much money.

        I see your point... I don't know how I could fit a keyboard in my laptop's bag... but I do see your point...

          I used to carry a Happy Hacking Keyboard [yahoo.com] in my bag. It is much smaller than a full-size keyboard, but it got that way by reducing keycount rather than keysize. My new PowerBook has a much nicer keyboard than my old laptop, so I use it at home now. It has all the alphanumeric and puncuation keys, plus alt, command, control and escape; every key you need for emacs or vi. On the rare occasions I needed to hit "Scroll Lock" or the like, I would just reach up to the laptop's built in keyboard.

          I think it has a nice feel, but that is a very subjective matter. Too bad about the goofy name, though.
