StrokeIt
How many gestures have you performed?Posted by eltranced
The secret? He/she must be using it for a very long time :) (on the same os).
My relationship with StrokeIt dates to somewhere around 2003. I've installed and reinstalled my OSes (XPs, Vistas and several Win7s) countless times since then, resetting the counter each time, so the sum of my gestures performed is likely well beyond 5M. But since I started using AHK excessively in the last 5-6 months I'm not using StrokeIt as frequently anymore. To be honest, I fell back on using the mouse altogether when I switched to trackball (I had a very nasty RSI) and many strokes I created in the past are nowadays replaced by either AHK hotkeys/hotstring or AHK scripts using mouse button combinations (actually, those are still gestures :) I'm still using many of my basic StrokeIt gestures every day, of course, and they could probably never be substituted by any other means. By the way, thanks for sharing that gem, Cerberus ;)
"Madness! What's your secret? Is there a special gesture that you perform so often? My most frequent gestures must be copy/paste (up/down) and back/forward (left/right in Firefox)."
Im pretty sure the most frequent gesture is minimize, close tab, change tab to the right (lbutton down), new tab, close app. I use the simplest gestures for all of those, in my oppinion. / \ that's four different strokes that work on the first try almost every time. Also lbutton down and scroll up/down is good "gestures". |
