Hi,

A co-worker of mine who is mobilly handicapped, uses a Windows
"Accessibillity option" called "Sticky Keys" ... so he can still operate
his keyboard normally, using ... let's call it a "straw" and his mouth.

What this does is basically the following:

- Pressing SHIFT/CONTROL/ALT once makes that key "active" until the next
  keystroke.
- Pressing SHIFT/CONTROL/ALT twice makes that key "active" until it is
  pressed a third time.

He and I have been wondering if such functionality would also be available
already or "easily" to be implemented, so he might actually be able to use
a Unix environment to work with instead of a Windows one.

  Managers know it must be good because the programmers hate it so much.
