Being a left-handed person, I can only applaud your initiative :)) The only thing that I don't understand, is this: if you are use the whole left-hand set of keys and nothing but the left-hand set of keys, why don't you include "6"? It definitely belongs to the family of left-hand keys! Yours, Jan ===== "You know, I used to think it was awful that life was so unfair. Then I thought, wouldn't it be much worse if life were fair, and all the terrible things that happen to us come because we actually deserve them? So, now I take great comfort in the general hostility and unfairness of the universe." --- J. Michael Straczynski __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
