 I also did quite fine with keyboard - but it's nothing compared to
playing with a mouse. You can react _much_ faster by turning and aiming
with the mouse more precisely and faster.

 I also have the following entry within my ~/.mailcap:

image/*; asciiview %s; needsterminal

 But this is only for _displaying_, not for _producing_ graphics :)
Although you can do a lot with scripting in gimp, too. But to do real
drawing you need a mouse, face the fact. You can't write a script for
every single stroke you make, and try it each time....

 So, again, for _you_ a mouse is unnessasary for you don't do much with
your linux box. Fine for you - but don't be so short minded that
everyone can go _completely_ without.

 Let me quote again my sentence:
