The unix system I use doesn't have a GUI, so, obviously, it's all keyboard.
I access it thru a PC using a terminal emulator. When I'm doing other PC stuff, I tend to use the mouse - but that's because I hate PCs.
When I use my Mac, I tend to learn and use the keyboard shortcuts so I can avoid using the mouse.
Nothing against the mouse, it's just easier and quicker to type rather than mouse.

NAME
filter-mouse - Generic mouse event translator
SYNOPSIS
filter-mouse: [<file>]
DESCRIPTION
This filter translates mouse events according to a set of translation rules.
OPTIONS
file The name of the configuration file. If none given, the filter will first look for the file filter/mouse in the user GGI directory
($HOME/.ggi/ on UNIX), then in the base GGI directory if not found.
CONFIGURATION
The translation rules are specified through a simple text file. The following example gives a good idea of the mouse filter usage. A #
marks the rest of the line as a comment.
EXAMPLE
