I'm learning vi, as I appreciate the vast possibilities of the editor, and have to use a plain-text editor for my current project. In many tutorials I have read that it is recommended to use the keys "h", "j", "k" and "l" instead of the arrow keys, for the sake of speed. However, as a touch typist, my fingers are normally in the default...

I use SendInput to replay the mouse ...
