It looks like poorly written and proofed English. Or, do you mean French is another programming language that you're not proficient in? Ok, quickly typed out n no time to edit. You're starting to see what I see. You mentioned your typing speed---as a secretary, I think you said---was `80 wpm'. Usually, Xah, erroneous typing doesn't count, it diminishes your score. The way you type leads me to believe that you don't touch-type well on Qwerty or Dvorak keyboards. I don't mean to insult you, but rather point out the incongruity with your seemingly immense interest in ergonomic typing configurations. My experience has been that good typists, well, type well ... in some language. I hope you find a text editor and a mail list that you are happy with some day.
