> QWERTY is colloquially known as the programmers' Dvorak [citation needed] I use Dvorak for coding, and it works just fine. Sometimes I use layouts where holding cmd/ctrl reverts to QWERTY (so that Ctrl+C is where it is on QWERTY), but it doesn't really matter that much. Incidentally, I once made a layout with similar ideas to this one, but based on Dvorak. I was living in France, and just needed an easier way to access French symbols. I didn't go quite as far as this - for all the diaeresis symbols I just relied on Altgr-:, then letter. I'm a bit skeptical about some choices like placing ÿ on the same key as H. It's such a rarely used letter I'm not sure how you would ever learn that it was on that key, since there's no underlying logic to it.
