Brett also snuck in a feature he's been itching for: lots and lots and lots of
keyboard shortcuts. There's only one keyboard shortcut you have to memorize,
though: Ctrl+; switches FogBugz into keyboard mode and little letters light up
reminding you what the shortcuts are for various commands around the screen.
It's really pretty cool to be able to work through a bunch of cases,
assigning, editing, and reprioritizing, without ever reaching for the mouse.
Combined with the speed and responsiveness from Ajax, FogBugz has almost
reached the level of speed and fluidity of my dry cleaner's DOS 2.0 character
mode database application. And that's pretty darn responsive for a web app.

<ubajas> Technically, my first language was Turbo Pascal, but I
started over with Perl 10 years later (not having
programmed in the meantime). I'm obviously damaged goods.
<iank> ubajas: heh, I read that as "I started with (perl 10)
(years later)" instead of "I started with perl (10 years
later)" :)
<rindolf> Perl 10!
<rindolf> Perl for the Fourth Millenium.
<jagerman> I thought Perl 6 was supposed to be timeless
<ubajas> iank: Maybe I should have added a comma. :-]
<jagerman> Perl ���
<iank> perl6 has existed since the beginning of time, or at least
it will have existed since then once $Larry finds a time
machine.
<simcop2387> iank: i'm sorry but larry is the prophet i am the
messanger! i will be the one to take it back!
<iank> WHAT.
<simcop2387> iank: its MY TIME MACHINE!
* iank smacks simcop2387 around
<jagerman> iank: So it'll be like that Star Trek episode, where they
say that the development of computers are caused by time
travel from the future?
<jagerman> Except that they were too stupid (like most Voyager
writers) to get their facts right, and thought computers
started in the 70s
