Apologies for promoting my own work but....
I have just returned to Scotland after two years living in Papua New Guinea, spending part of my free time writing.
Some people use keyboard commands instead of a computer mouse or other pointing device because they cannot, or have difficulty seeing the screen. Other people use keyboard commands, at least some of the time because the find it faster
and more convenient, especially experienced touch typists who would break their rythm by taking a hand off the keys.
The popular MS Excel and Word programs as well as the alternatives LibreOffice or OpenOffice Calc and Writer have comprehensive sets of keyboard commands although finding out what they all are is not easy. To solve this problem Visimpscot (my IT training business name)has prepared four guides that can be freely downloaded from http://tinyurl.com/visimpscot and distributed to anyone who needs them (they are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 3.0 Unported License). If you modify the guides, acknowledge the source and use the same Creative Commons license.
LibreOffice / OpenOffice Calc from the keyboard
LibreOffice / OpenOffice Writer from the keyboard
Microsoft Excel from the keyboard
Microsoft Word from the keyboard
The guides have been written in Markdown format to display using Mdwiki (www.mdwiki.info). To see the formating they must be viewed with a Mozilla Firefox browser, the portable version of Firefox works as well, both can be downloaded for free. The Markdown files can also be read and modified as desired by any text editing or word processing program.
OK, I wrote these guides and want to promote them but they do meet a real need, so please help by downloading them, distributing them and telling all you know who might find them useful.
