You are tired of typing ALPHA / letter / ALPHA / letter ...?
I can understand.
You don't like ALPHA lock (pressing ALPHA twice)?
I can understand,d too (a little less though).
But: There's a thiird  alternative! I picked it up somewhere in this
BBS or in Wayne's mail server. Sorry to its author, but I forgot his
or her name.
The alternative is: Press ALPHA and hold it down while pressing the 
letters. When you release ALPHA, you are back in normal mode.
I am a left-hander too, and I use my ring finger  for holding ALPHA and
the others for typing.
Hope that helps.
