| | Keyboard layout - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Note that the US keyboard layout does not use AltGr or any dead keys, and thus offers no way of inputting any sort of diacritic or accent; this makes it unsuitable for all but a handful of languages. |  | | Finally, if you are on a computer without CJK software installed, it may be possible to enter a character directly through its encoding number (e.g. |  | | The Portuguese (Portugal) keyboard layout would also be more preferable, as it provides all the special character accents used in French (acute, grave, tréma, tilde, circumflex, ç, and quotation marks «») and its dead-letter option for all the accent keys allow for easy input of all the possibilities in French and most other languages(áàäãâéèëêíìïîóòöõôúùüû). |

| | Installing Urdu Phonetic Keyboard Layout in Windows XP/2000 |
 | | However Windows XP/2000 provides its keyboards in the DLL (Dynamic Linked Library) file format which basically means they are compiled files which cannot be modified by the end-user. |  | | I know that it is used by some professionals but far and large the majority of Urdu software users use and prefer the phonetic keyboard layout in one form or another. |  | | However I found a software package called Keyboard Layout Manager which did exactly what I wanted and voila a few hours later I managed to produce a Phonetic Urdu Keyboard Layout for Windows XP/2000. |

| | THDL Inputting Tools: Dzongkha Unicode Keyboard for Windows XP |
 | | Dzongkha Unicode Keyboard for Windows XP Based on layout designed jointly by the Dzongkha Development Authority and Department of Information Technology, Royal Government of Bhutan, Chris Fynn has created a Windows XP system keyboard that may be used for input of Dzongkha or Tibetan Unicode text in Microsoft Windows applications. |  | | Once installed, the keyboard can be assigned to any "unused" language on one's computer and is activated by choosing that language through the language bar. |  | | The Dzongkha input method (keyboard) is now assigned to that language and it will appear as "Faroese" or "Konkani" (or whichever language you selected) in your taskbar. |

| | Dvorak Keyboard |
 | | One may purchase a Dvorak keyboard, but a cost-free alternative is simply to use software that comes with many operating systems that allows instant reassignment of the QWERTY keys to the Dvorak configuration. |  | | Keyboard configuration, evidently, is intimately bound to self-perpetuating social convention, and the problem of inertia, which has cost us dearly in lost opportunities for ameliorating physical and economic harms, must be solved socially. |  | | Since keyboard operation is a rote skill, now taught by software rather than by humans, there is no need to retrain teachers in the Dvorak keyboard. |

 | | Fortunately, the computer keyboard allows us to be of both persuasions, QWERTY and Dvorak, though monoga mously so. |  | | There have been a lot of studies on Dvorak's "Simplified Keyboard." The obstacles to the new keyboard were the costs of replacing machines and retraining typists. |  | | Does the future of computing include a keyboard at all or will our "writing" be in the form of dictation or video. |

| | [No title] |
 | | In the United States, the most common keyboard layout for computer keyboards remains the one designed by Christopher Sholes for the original Remington "Type Writer" in 1876. |  | | But Dvorak designed his layout in the 1930's without the aid of computers. |  | | I just can't think of a way in which that could be done, since a keyboard layout is a permutation of a list rather than a selection from a multiset. |

| | The Dvorak Keyboard |
 | | Having heard Dvorak's claims, but not the modern-day scientific analysis of his experiments, I decided to switch to the Dvorak layout in the late 1980s, when computer software (specifically version 10 of the X Window System) made it fairly simple to remap the keyboard layout without making any hardware changes. |  | | However, now that most of us use computers (or electric typewriters that don't use levers), the problem of keys jamming is no longer a consideration. |  | | Once my workplace switched from DOS to Windows and I was able to use the Dvorak layout everwhere, those problems vanished and have not returned. |

| | Photo Matt » On the Dvorak Keyboard Layout |
 | | Non-configurable keyboard shortcuts are often designed to be convenient on QWERTY and so when you’re under Dvorak they can be awkward. |  | | I don’t want to have to special-order my keyboard, I just want to pick up whatever is the coolest at the computer store. |  | | So I printed out a copy of the keyboard layout, taped it next to my monitor, switched my computer keyboard over, and began typing. |
