Lots of comments about small improvements to typing efficiency. It is an important topic.

One thing I do, is turn the key repeat speed up as fast as I can stand, and turn the delay to repeat down as low as possible. I have always done this and over the years I've experimented to find the fastest possible settings.

On the Mac, use:

defaults write NSGlobalDomain KeyRepeat -int 1

defaults write -g InitialKeyRepeat -int 7

See: http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=2009082319301814...

After getting so used to these fast speeds, when I see folks attempting to type with the slow default speeds ... it is quite hilariously slow and I must confess I feel a little pity for them.
