``/prog/rammer Dvorak is a `sub'-layout which makes it easier to write source code in C, Java by MS, JAVAIDS, Pascal, λ, CSS, XML and alikes. It was generated through reflection of the most common constructs in these languages and the rules set forward by the August Dvorak in his research, then verified by scanning through thousands of source code lines ensuring that a good fit was found."

I use the Official Keyboard Layout of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, and it really is rather good, chaps.

I'm in Australia, and I'm using the US Keyboard layout. There actually isn't any difference as far as I can tell between different keyboard layouts.

WTF, that's even more awkward, especially those shifted number keys and +/- getting moved to completely different rows.
The only thing I'd do if I was creating a "programmer" keyboard would be to move ( and ) to the existing ; and ' keys, merge ; and ' together to /?, and split /? up to ( and ) along with : and ".

>>19 those shifted number keys
you should be using the number pad to type numbers anyway.
+/- getting moved to completely different rows.
well, what do you expect from a layout based on dvorak?

I like the hexpad, though maybe using numlock,/*-+ when in hex mode for ABCDEF might be better.

The number pad is retarded. You know what would be a faster way to type numbers? Using the number keys where my fingers have 80% coverage at all times, rather than a miserable 40%.

Actually a numpad that mimicked the layout of a telephone would be better.

No we aren't. We're accustomed to rapid number entry on a numpad and on calculators. When's the last time you dialed a phone by hand? I don't even type in other people's numbers any more.

The numeric layout on a telephone keypad is unscientific and ultimately destructive.

If you have more experience using a phone with numbered keys than you do a computer numpad, you're too young to have an opinion on anything.
