i touch type. generally i know that i have made a mistake before i even
see what i have typed. i don't even know what i am correcting when i
correct, just that i have typed some wrong character (like the d in
typed just now, i typed a space (and did it again just there ;-) and then
went back and corrected it to be a d) my question has always been: how
many programmers, etc, touch type?
