This is, for now, just a quick note to myself, soonish to expanded into a proper post. If possible.

Based on German Dvorak Type II by Matthias Halibrand, I made my own Dvorak keyboard layout for Mac OS X.

You can get it here. Basically, it’s a bastard for programmers and designers, with goodies like good reachable « and », and an almost automatic way to insert the classic emoji ^_^.

Command keys are not mapped back to QWERTY, as I noticed that this breaks most of the more complex shortcuts, so I guess it’s not exactly for the faint-hearted.

This is by no means a complete version. If you have ideas, neat tricks or improvements, please comment on this post, so I can make a better version of this keyboard layout.
