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.

Too much = dependency on mouse is bad for my arm.

Do = you have video, suggestions, guide to totally eliminate use of the

Unfortunately I do not have access to a UNIX server
