  • I don’t think so, you get pretty used to the shift+f# pretty quick. In my experience most of the common option like prompt, exit, expand options, and cancel are on the normal row like F4, F3, F10, and F12.

    Get used to the command line and learn to think of words without vowels lol you’re going to be writing work and display as wrk and dsp from now on.

    Do yourself a favor and do a wrksbs when you get access and learning what subsystems are part of your org’s operation and what they are individually responsible for. Remember look don’t touch for a while like all new systems. Good luck and enjoy the green screen life!


  • I don’t get it either, but I also with with AS400s daily and therefore need f1-24 and I’m not going to deal with all the layering setup needed for that when I can get a normal keyboard and hit shift+F4 for F16 instead of shift+left ctrl+F4. It doesn’t seem like much but when you’re using F13-24 a lot then it gets annoying.

    I also want numpad, I don’t want to type IP schemes on the number row








  • And that’s great, the extreme minority of the human workforce that is doing programming is free to use Linux if they want. That doesn’t change the fact that windows is the best option for the majority of the worlds workers so long as an it department makes half a dozen settings changes via group policy.

    Karen in accounting doesn’t need a customizable kernel or a terminal that allows unfettered control of the OS, she just needs her excel macros and pivot tables to function so she do brain dead spreadsheets 9 hours a day.
