Your keyboard.

Post by Seth »

¶ I am sure many of you have used a foreign keyboard layöut before. I still have the Hebræw keyboard while I was trying to learn Hebræw. Although I was quite dissatisfied with its layöut. It had none of the unique punctuätion and the layöut felt nothing like English; very few of the letters reflected their Latin counter‐parts. I could not settle for this, so I looked for an application on the Internet and then I made my own setup.
¶ I eventually found that there are hundreds of characters that could be used in English writing, but are not præsent on typical English keyboards. I decided to edit my own English layout. Needless to say, this has been keeping me occupied in my spare time.

I personally would just want assorted symbols to be more easily accessible. Wikipedia shows a bunch of key combinations, but I never remember them, and when I do, they don't seem to work.

¶ I am not really sure what you mean by “assorted symbols”. There are various symbols which are decorative or can otherwise crudely convey something, but many fonts do not always support these characters.
¶ Are you referring to these at all?

One quick question: WHY HAS NOBODY BOUGHT THIS AWESOME KEYBOARD!?!?!?!?

(I mean, besides the fact that you need to refinance your house to afford it?)
