It’s been stuck, but I haven’t barely been putting effort into it. I’ve been working much more on minimizing mouse usage—vim for text editing, firefox with pentadactyl for web browsing, and bash for many computing and programming tasks.
The low-hanging fruit is definitely not in getting better at stenographic typing—since I’ve started working as a professional software developer, there’s been much more computer-operation than English text entry. I’d have to figure out a really solid way of switching seamlessly between Vim’s normal-mode and stenographic typing in insert mode. And configuration and exploratory learning that I’m nowhere near capable of to adjust stenographic typing to writing code in addition to English. It’s likely still my best option for getting super solid at writing English text, but it’s simply lower priority at the moment than other tools.
How is your stenographic typing progressing? What has the return on effort been for you, so far?
