I prefer to use the mouse as little as possible. I have tried unsuccessfully to find keyboard controls for Script Workspace. For example, if I want to enter a Sort Records step, I can enter the command by typing s-o-r, then Return. But then I have to reach for the mouse to turn off the dialog and click the cog icon to get to the specifics. Once I get to the field list, I can use the keyboard for only a few strokes. For example, if I have fields

nameFirst
nameLast
nameMiddle
namePreferred

entering n-a takes me to nameFirst, but it stops filtering at that point. Entering n-p, or even n-a-m-e-p, will not take me to namePreferred.

Writing scripts is a constant back-and-forth between keyboard and mouse. I feel like I'm making a dumb mistake. There's something that I've overlooked. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Thanks.

I don't think it goes beyond what's listed here:

Perhaps you can add your own using a 3rd party utility?

These are helpful, as far as they go. And I'm using only about half of them consistently. Perhaps I should focus more on habitually using what IS available. Thanks for your help.
