My proposal is that we put keyboard switches and their caps on LEGO-like studs, so that anybody can create whatever physical keyboard layout they want.

- qwerty456127 5y agoThere is no reason for creating custom layouts to be hard (or require any physical manipulations). There just are no good apps for this. Windows lets you modify the "locale" easily (something I do every time I install Windows) and also has MSKLC which is rather good (but could be made easier and integrated in the Control Panel). Other OSes expect everyone to stick to a standard, nevertheless allow custom locales and keyboard layouts too, just a user-unfriendly way, begging for a 3rd party to come up with an app to make that accessible to mere mortals.
