I use a system a lot like those mentioned here, but in order to avoid typing it all the time, I have a bunch of buttons to control my more common hexes. Several different buttons toggle option variables (for example, there's one that controls a variable called "immediate," one that controls a variable called "whammy," one that controls a variable called "push," etc). I then have a bunch of buttons, each with the name of one of my favorite hexes.

For example, I have a button for asthma. If I want to hex someone in the room with asthma immediately, I toggle my "immediate" button on (it stays on until I turn it off). I think click on my "asthma" button, which will draw an asthma hex, and immediately upon regaining eq hex my target with it.

If instead I want to hex someone with a hex already in the room, I toggle my immediate button off and click my "asthma" button, which just hexes my target, but doesn't draw. The same concept works for pushing, drawing, etc, and any hex you want.

End result - I can hex the hell out of someone without typing a word.

But typing is so much faster than clicking...

sometimes, but it's easier for me to see a list of my hexes, so i don't have to remember all of them, and remember which ones are already drawn and which i have to draw, etc.. I have aliases set up as well, and the buttons simply execute those aliases to save me the trouble and time of remembering it all
