- noname120 5y agoI find the Canadian-French layout[1] to be pretty hard to learn, because the placement of characters is confusing. For example: – ± is on key 1 (?) – ² is on key 8 (?!) – can't directly type éèêë, àâä, ùûü, ìîï[2]. – € is not available (big oops for a French keyboard layout). – œ and æ are not available either. – no support for no-break space and narrow no-break space (they are mandatory in French around punctuation). QWERTY-fr aims to be super easy to learn if you know QWERTY thanks to its logical philosophy — you can read about it here[3]. What do you think? :) [1] http://kbdlayout.info/KBDCA/ http://kbdlayout.info/KBDCA/ [2] You need to press a dead key first, which is awkward and slow. The fact that dead keys are placed seemingly randomly makes it even worse. [3] https://github.com/qwerty-fr/qwerty-fr#-philosophy-overview https://github.com/qwerty-fr/qwerty-fr#-philosophy-overview
- leblancfg 5y agoHere's a link to the MacOS version layout for alt-codes, which I believe handles all your points except the last: https://i.stack.imgur.com/v1ZLm.png https://i.stack.imgur.com/v1ZLm.png
- noname120 5y agoThank you for the clarification. If I understand correctly, one needs to press two keys to print « É ». Do you agree? If it's right, I believe that it only invalidates point #4.
- FrancoisBosun 5y agoShift + /, when using fr-CA, does return É. Is that what you meant with "two keys". For œ or Œ, I use Option+Q or Option+Shift+Q (Mac Big Sur).
