I Have Brainpower to Write Simple Code Again!

I've been helping Miriam with getting slides ready for her lectures! I got annoyed with having to keep clicking through mouse menus to change fonts and text colors and things, and I was also feeling good enough to have brain power to work on the problem with.

I wrote scripts in AutoHotKey to make F13 + various keys do all the things! I really miss the macropads I lost in the fire, and instead I have to keep a little document open that tells me what keys do what. But I'm kind of pleased with myself regardless.

Miriam seems to think it's unusual that I avoid using the mouse But every instance of moving my hand back and forth from keyboard to mouse and back that I can eliminate is one little piece of added convenience to make life a little bit less annoying.

Maybe I'll update the startup script I was using to open windows and put them in the right places on various monitors again.
