cross-cultural manifestations of
sexually dimorphic adaptations). |

Some computer aids to help you boost your
productivity:
| Reading. Keep up with that
mountain of reading -- have your computer read files aloud
to you (including
online articles or books, or those that you've scanned in) with
TextAloud.
It can also save audio files to MP3 format for listening
with a portable MP3 player in the
car, at the gym, etc. I use the AT&T
Natural Voices option for very human sounding speech synthesis. |
| Writing.
Speed up your writing with a computer dictation program such as
NaturallySpeaking. |
| Editing with Vi. If you are a vi editor
addict like me, and have been looking for a vi
editor emulation plug-in for
Microsoft Word for Windows that allows for the use of vi
commands for
editing within MS Word, see Vi/vim emulation for Visual Studio, Word,
Outlook and SQL Server http://www.viemu.com/
. Also see the stand alone
vi editor called vim at
www.vim.org. |
