About
The Why As a lefty, I found the Dvorak layout a little less useful in building speed. So I created the Dvorak Lefty layout. I popped the keys on my PowerBook 1400c and arranged them in a mirror image of the Dvorak layout, provided by Dvorak International (thanks, guys). I then used ResEdit to create the KCHR resource, remapping all the keys to the new layout (including the option & shift-option characters). I never learned to touch-type, but have managed to get around 40 wpm staring at the keyboard. I have been able to catch up to that with less finger strain with this layout.
The What This is a horizontally flipped version of the ANSI Standard Dvorak layout. The Dvorak Lefty layout is a simply KCHR resource created with ResEdit. It is System 7 compatible and should create no problems or conflicts with any software. This layout is FREE. Copy, distribute, and post it as you please. I do ask that the layout, the KeyCaps screenshot, and this Read Me file be distributed together. Also, this layout may not be sold, except that a reasonable distribution fee may be requested when necessary. Share and enjoy.
