To leave now, perhaps because you arrived here by accident, hold down
the Control key and hit both the Space bar and then the backslash (\) key.
This emergency escape sequence is deliberately hard to type so that you
won't accidentally terminate the editor and lose work.
Documentation for the editor should be available with the shell command
"man aoeui" or "man asdfg".

Now prove that the patterns Dvorak attempts to optimize for are actually worth worrying about.

158wpm on QWERTY here. I don't think switching to Dvorak is going to get me any further speed, since at those rates what matters most is not where the next key is, but how fast you can press them down.

Fingers travel a shorter distance when typing English in the Dvorak layout as compared to the Qwerty layout. Thus, it is easy to understand claims that typing in Dvorak is faster because people can type comparitively more letters.
As for me, I type in Dvorak to alleviate my carpal tunnel syndrome. I can type much faster in Qwerty but I've never had any physical problems typing in Dvorak.

i scrolled down until i saw this:

This keyboard's most obvious feature is lowercase typing. (Remington's machine typed only capitals until they added a Shift key later on.) But as radical as it seems, the Caligraph's lowercase layout still bears a striking resemblance to QWERTY.
striking resemblance? obviously a troll.

are you dyslexic? it resembles dvorak just as much as it resembles qwerty. all this shows is that humans are really good at imagining patterns in random data.
Someone should invent a legitimately superior keyboard layout to shut those Dvorak faggots up once and for all, and to boost our typing speed as a bonus.

Hah, slightly better by completely arbitrary, unproven criteria. Dvorak at best makes you a couple percent faster. So Colamak gets you maybe three WPM more. Staggering!
>>36
You really haven't been paying attention at all. Please to STFU now.
