Fork of https://mods.factorio.com/mod/Peppermint_Mining that allows for personal-robot mining, unlocks at the start of the game so you don't have to hand mine ever.
To remove the selection for mining, use the Peppermint Tool and drag around the area with the right mouse button.
(Dragging with the left mouse button selects the desired area as expected.)
The original mod mentioned the use of the 'Alt' key. This does not work, and opens the Factoriopedia.
