I’ve used a US-QWERTY keyboard layout my entire life. I’ve seen other layouts that do things like reduce the size of the enter/backspace keys, move the pipe operator (|
) and can’t wrap my head around how I would code on those.
What are your experiences? Are there any layouts that you prefer for coding over US English? Are there any symbols that you have a hard time reaching ( for example)?
Every language has a different lay out because they are all based upon the typing machine.
Which needed a specific layout so the hammers didn’t hit each other during commonly typed letters.
And yes, British English is a different language than American English. That is why you have things like colour and color.
