What about the folks using Dvorak keyboard??
- spajus 13y agoRead here: http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Using_Vim_with_the_Dvorak_keyboard_layout http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Using_Vim_with_the_Dvorak_keyboard... Are there many guys using Dvorak? I only met one in my whole life.
- manifesto 13y agoNow you meet two.
- sneak 13y agoThe best hacker I ever knew used dvorak. He went off the grid to become a welder or something, but he was _fast_.
- mcgaffin 13y agoI use Dvorak. I never bothered to maintain the QWERTY keyboard for vim movement. Now, it seems completely natural to navigate with the Dvorak mappings for h,j,k,l, etc. I can't easily navigate one-handed, I guess, but that is never really a problem.
- jcoder 13y agoThat article is probably doing more harm than good. Using Vim with Dvorak came as naturally as switching to Dvorak from QWERTY (that is, it took some work, but now I wouldn't use anything else).
- sergeykish 13y agoSwitched to vim and dvorak same day five years ago. Default mapping is very natural - left hand (qwerty "c" and "v") used for vertical movement, right hand (qwerty "j" and "p") for horizontal movement.
- milesf 13y agoOne of the top Ruby User Groups in the world has a large number of Dvorak users. I mimicked them and posted about it on Slashdot years ago: http://ask.slashdot.org/story/07/04/15/0043237/is-dvorak-gaining-traction-among-coders http://ask.slashdot.org/story/07/04/15/0043237/is-dvorak-gai...
