Just curious. I'm not touch-typist myself.
But I still have to wonder if the whole "WordStar keyboard commands were the bomb" thing isn't mostly due to the fact that it's what you (rhet) learned first and it worked, and you're loathe to learn something new. You know ... nostalgia.
There's certainly nothing wrong with not wanting to learn anything new, but I've yet to really hear anything that doesn't have an equivalent in modern word-processing software (while staying completely away from function keys and the mouse). There's standard ctrl editing codes, and alt-key menu shortcuts that today's touch-typists can manipulate just as efficiently (after learning them, of course) I think. Not to mention the ability to SEE the exact results of your efforts on the screen. *shrug*
