Re: [h-e-w] "Ctrl" key wears out long before remaining keys

[Kai Großjohann]

Another idea is to use different keys.  I've started to use F-key
combinations.  For example, combos with F2 are for window management:

<f2> <f2>       other-window
<f2> <f3>       delete-other-windows
<f2> <f4>       delete-window

F4 is for buffer management:

<f4> <f2>       switch-to-buffer
<f4> <f3>       switch-to-other-buffer (home-grown function I think)
<f4> <f4>       ibuffer
<f4> <f5>       other-frame

And so on and so forth.  I find that these combos are quite fast to
hit.  Especially if you move them around so that often-used
combinations are easy.  For example, <f5> <f5> is save-buffer and
<f8> <f9> is compile, so <f5> <f5> <f8> <f9> has become a natural
sequence for me; I use both hands for it.
