Does anyone know of a method for recording or counting
keystrokes entered
while running Edit and other Nextified programs?  What I have in mind
is something akin to Photo in Tops-20.  The goal in particular is to
develop a record which can be used to calculate the efficiency, in 
number of keystrokes, of various approaches to editing and cleaning
a set of data files.  I'm new to Unix, so I may not be aware of
what would seem to be a relatively simple Tee style solution.

Also, I want to second the call for a general, icon based
backup manager, one that is robust enough to handle selectively
multiple user's accounts.

Thanks for your help.
