You know, I use spreadsheets from time to time, and most of them you
change an option to allow it to move on Enter, stay in the same field on
enter, move on tab, etc. You can even tell it to move down or sideways on
Enter or Tab.
So I guess the answer is, I have to remain frustrated while I unlearn a
15+ year habit at a username/password prompt (which, even as I unlearn it
will be reinforced on my dozens of SSH logins per day). Sheesh.
Screw it, I'll uninstall X. I just need a way to open a dozen VTs on one
console so I can cut-n-paste between them.
