Like I said, I couldn't understand it at all until I
tried it. Then it instantly made sense.

For C programming, just think where the ';' is. It is
at the little finger of the right hand, as is all the
brackets. Those are used at the end of lines. So from
there, you just move two keys to the right and hit RET
to get a new line.

But - "Unfortunately, no one can be 'told' what the
Matrix is. You have to see it for yourself."

Yes, and this is the appeal of the compose key.
