Hi Team,

So I have 2 kids that absolutely love to sit on me at pretty much every opportunity. I'm prepping like mad to try get Storm King's Thunder entered in time for our new session to start and I find myself frustrated trying to enter data in with one hand.

It's a unique problem i know haha. But it got me thinking about what I could do to make myself more productive while managing to hold a sleeping baby in one hand.

Gaming Keyboards - I have a Logitech G19. Has a heap of those G keys that most people tend to forget about. I made 2x macros that have so far sped me up, not just while wrestling a toddler with one hand but it's also speeding me up in general. Using these keys I can trigger common commands with a single keystroke.

This is the paste as unformatted text as a single paragraph macro
Macro (Ctrl down, Alt down, V down, V up, Alt up, Ctrl up, Enter down, Enter up)

This is the Remove Empty Snippets and Sections macro.
Macro (Ctrl down, Shift down, ` down, ` up, Shift up, Ctrl up, Enter down, Enter up)

Does anyone have other tips for speeding up data entry? Particularly for 1 handed data entry?
