Mouseless and loving it!

Thursday, June 4th, 2009

I’m pretty proud of myself! I found a mouse-replacement application that uses the keyboard. It’s similar to Microsoft’s own accessibility application “Mouse Keys” which is built into windows. I hated how this application was completely cumbersome and hardly customizable.

When I found that there was a script included within the AUTOHOTKEY help files that did the very same thing only better..I instantly loved it! I can now customize any part of it even, since it’s an AUTOHOTKEY script. I’m remapping the keys so that I use the Caps Lock key instead of the Scroll Lock to activate the mouse keys. Also to use the right hand of the “home row” as the basis of my mouse keys. Now I can stay at the home row and still be productive in the GUI portion of Windows.

WOOT.
