Copy and paste

Ctrl + C,V can be used one handed whilst still using the mouse in right hand.

Is most of your computer/internet usage one handed

Not sure which part of the country you're from Simon, but where I come from the average number of hands is just under 2

In Devon, the average number of fingers and thumbs is just above 10.

I use the mouse with my left hand. And no I'm not left handed.

I also Ctrl+Ins/Shift+Ins/Shift+Del. But oddly if I use cut and paste of files in explorer, I'll always use Ctrl+C/X/V.

Everyone seems to use CTRL, C and V for copy and paste, but for as long as I can remember I've used CNTRL-INSERT and SHIFT-INSERT respectively for these operations. Anyone else?

Me too. But I am very old.

Same here.

WHS.

When you look at someone like AtW who uses the other approach & copies & posts everything on CUK you're able to calculate that he's wasted an extra 3 years of his life so far using that method.

On the other hand AtW would never be able to learn the 'new way' of CTRL+C/V/X.

Same here.

WIS.

You can't be that old if you can still remember. What was this thread about again?

[stek]

I still prefer the old Unix X-Windows style focus-follows-pointer and select automatically copies to buffer.

[TimberWolf]

However most of the time I probably use the mouse.
