Re: avoid mouse when using pg_admin

Carrie,

I agree with Fabio’s suggestion of learning psql and the handful of other command line utilities that most of us use to administer (and script the administration) of PostgreSQL.  There is nothing that you can do in pg_admin that you can’t do at the command line.  A good book — there are several available — may help you quickly get comfortable working comfortably mouse-free.

Cheers,

- Evan

Hi Carrie,

The alternative to the mouse, is the keyboard.

As a generic tip, valid basically for everything browser-based..
Try perhaps making more use of 'tab' to move between fields and use the
keyboard in a complimentary way to shortcut your mouse actions.

Else, learn the command line way of managing PostgreSQL. You won't
regret it.

regards,

fabio pardi

Through my job I have to use the following gui version of pg_admin

Too much dependency on mouse is bad for my arm.

Do you have video, suggestions, guide to totally eliminate use of the
mouse with this tool.

Unfortunately I do not have access to a UNIX server

thanks
