start new sketch with setup and loop

my default sketch - and yes, I change it once a year -

void setup()
{
  Serial.begin(9600);
  Serial.println("start...");
}

void loop()
{
}

Another nice way is to have a gaming keyboard e.g. - http://www.logitech.com/en-us/keyboards/keyboards/gaming-keyboard-g510 -
and program the "game" buttons for code snippets.
(rather expensive but :slight_smile:
