Keyboard control of Script Workspace?

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.

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.
