Now that we're all cleanin up our <HTML> and MIME mail.

Windoze has lots of mouse free features built right in. If you <cntl><esc><s><c>you get the control panel. At the tippytop is Accessibility Options. You can set up all kinds of stuff for doing mousie bits without the mousie.

In any "tabbed" panel like the Accessibility Options you can tab around the current page of the panel with the tab key a <shft>< tab> goes backward. Note the focus of the page changes. When it button or item you want is the current focus, the <enter> key will select it. To change pages, use <cntl>< tab> to go back in pages use <cntl><shft><tab>.

<alt> <tab> changes focus among the open windows. There's lots more that the lazy dog can use to keep the mousies away.

Of course if you have a fruit flavored computer I think you use apricot jam, blueberries or apple butter to do this stuff. Right, Kasper?

There is probably a simple VBS script that filters out all the stuff between <HTML> and <HTML> in a text file like the archives.

Before Carly decided I was too old to work, I did stuff like that.
