It would be great if it was possible to control DNA with keyboard commands to increase the speed of coding. Here are a few suggestions:

  • By defaults, the cursor should be in text already or maybe as soon as you press an arrow key
  • Navigation through text should be possible using arrow keys.
  • Text selection could be done by holding shift and using arrow keys (this is already working but only when some text is already selected).
  • Once text is selected, control + 1 should create a statement type 1, control + 2 should create a statement type 2 and so on.
  • once the statement window is open, the arrow keys should select values from the first dropdown menu; 1-9 should select values directly; left & right arrow key should un-/select boolean values.
  • tab should jump to the next box in the statement window.
  • Esc should close an open dropdown menu, a second Esc should close the Statment.
  • Page Up/Down should switch between documents
  • Maybe space or another button could be used to jump to the position of the next instance of a regex highlighted term.
