As a fellow dinosaur, I hear ya, Liz, but I don't think those have been
messed with (yet). 20-some years ago, I had a rotator-cuff tear and
using the mouse was agony, so I learned all the Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V, Ctrl-X
shortcuts and have never forgetten them. I instinctively reach for
whichever tool is closest and that's often the keyboard.
