Topic awaiting preservation: Poof! (Page 1 of 1)

So, I was replying to a topic, and while entering my name, I accidentally hit CTRL+W instead of Shift+W.

Poof! The window disappeared.

Who knew?

Well... I did.

Jeeze Wes, and here I thought you were 'coming out' by acting all *pooofy*.

nifty.

I did not. So naturally, I had to try it

and now I do.

Well, that's a new one for me too... However, I have accidentally hit the ESC key while replying, and it does an absolutely lovely job of clearing all the fields... And CTRL + Z does a far less then lovely job of undoing it...
Yea, I'm weird like that, keeping my left ring finger resting against the side of the ESC key and my middle finger right by F1, when I'm trying to figure out what I'm typing... Aside from that being a little strange in itself, those are a couple of the least used keys on my keyboard, ::shrugs::...

[edit... Then, what I love even more is when I hit the 'Submit Reply' button and a nice little window pops up saying I've been disconnected from the web ... I love dial-up... Really, I do... Would I lie about something like this?

F1_error? who on earth is that?

I hate that... and on my dvorak keyboard, w is right next to v... how often did I want to paste something, just to loose the window...

I've always been curious about those that dvorak layouts, it makes a lot seeing as though qwerty is designed specifically to slow down your typing(old typwriters got stuck). Did it take you long to adjust ? and yea was just thinking, CTRL +z +x +c +v are so handy that there together. Still I plan to switch my keys about someday, does it mess with games? or are they smart enough to use window's layout ?

My dad has always used that dvorak keyboard layout. It's amusing to watch him try to type on my keyboard, which is the qwerty layout... I've never tried it. I'm not sure I could get used to using a different layout. My head might explode trying to retrain my fingers...

I tried out the dvorak layout a little while, but never got really comfortable with it. Might be because I had to use the qwerty layout on the school computers each day. Been considering giving the dvorak layout another chance now, since I can change the layout on the Uni computers that I use so I wouldn't have to switch layouts all the time...

The layout does mess up the games. The keyboard shortcuts are linked to the character and no the key position.

1- Hey F1!!
2- On mozilla Ctrl+W closes the tab... you got to Ctrl+Shift+W to close the window..
3- No idea what the dvorak layout was- so I googled it-

Hey, F1!

Not only do you pop in, but I also find out that Lord_Fukutoku keep his middle finger on you for some reason...

Seems rude, actually.
