I connect to the Usenet through a free online service called the Freenet which I connect through a Telnet connection. As such, it uses only text-commands. I guess it would have been better if I describe my computer better. When I said I didn't have a mouse, I meant in relation to Internet access. I *do* have a mouse. I just can't use it for what I use my computer for(The Usenet + Email), so it doesn't really matter to me. In fact I only use the mouse once whenever I turn the computer(to maximize the window). It's not that bad though. When using the editor that edits my email and usenet posting within the FreeNet, there is a provision to delete an entire line of text(pressing CTRL-K). But if you have a large posting (like the original text I was refering to) it takes 2 seconds for the entire document to adjust to pressing the CTRL-K Key once. And if your like me, wasting a minute or two deleting 35-40 lines of text can seem like an eternity. Thanks for your suggestions, though. I like the fact that Microsoft built in so many keyboard commands when constructing Windows. The one that I probably use most(and was kinda surprised that it was still in Win95+98) is ALT+TAB to switch documents.
