Do you recycle when typing?

[edro]

For example:
You already have typed "Today" but you want to change it to "Tonight". Do you keep the "To" and retype the "night", or do you baskspace the entire thing and retype "Tonight"?

What about numbers?

146,435 and you want to change to 6,032. I would probably delete the "1,4,4,5" and re add the needed numbers.

Why? Hell if I know. I guess I feel like I am recycling bytes

i do whatever i am doing at the moment...if i type tyroe wrong i just retype type

 

[Amused]

Fsck you for making me think.

I hit backspace as many times as I have to until what I have typed is correct. Deleting the "to" in "today" when changing it to "tonight" is stupid, but it's usually easier to just retype "6032" then to repeatedly move your hand back and forth between the delete button and the arrow keys.

All the time

No, I find it faster to just retype it.

Nah, it's quicker to not recycle and instead ctrl + backspace through the today

 

[eLiu]

It depends...between today and tonight, i'd just ctrl-backspace the whole word and start over.

If I had most of the letters correct, i'd backspace and salvage.

I almost always retype numbers. Alternatively, I almost never mistype numbers.

 

[Rebasxer]

It just feels weird to me, I don't like having to count spaces so I usually just retype the entire word.

 

[imported_xaguynamedguyx]

ther are certain situations where i like to retype the whole thing and sometimes i like to do parts...

 

[Juice Box]

I need to remember the control backspace trick....but I always erase the entire word....cause if its a type you need to know how to type it correctly form memory rather than always correcting yourself

If "rarely" means sometimes, then rarely.

It's a helluva lot faster to backspace over and retype it.
