Well, don't report me to the never-be-root-police, but I've got a simple script in /home that .

One very good reason why I'd prefer to be writing about RPi *NOW* from RPi is that then I could *self-refer*. Every time you decide which-key-to-press, there's a potential error. OTOH, if you are 'in RPi' and using the mouse, you just *see* the 'object' and 'say' . emacs users may appreciate this?

Since I've got a copy of the-above script on this PC, I'll just paste it here, but users should try to appreciate the power of just being able to point at a 50-char-code and say instead of trying to type it.

ls ../ == shows me the parent dir: to be reminded of the script's name. ../V*2 == runs the *recognised* script, using minimal keys. The script's [OpenVT7-12] contents is: echo "Open Virtual Terminals 7,8,9,10,11,12" openvt openvt openvt openvt openvt openvt

Recognising is MASSIVELY easier than remembering. Obviously, my method causes me to mostly use VT12,11....7.

BTW there could be an error in my text above, because I needed to depend on memory, instead of the much more reliable point-to: that1, that2...
