The Human as a Constrained Optimal Text Editor
type: CreativeWork
description: Text editing is a sequence of two subtasks: locating a line to change, and changing it. User performance on the latter subtask, termed intraline editing, was modeled by a constrained optimal (minimum keystroke) solution. The primary constraint for modeling a given user was to employ only the commands that the user had been observed to issue.
