- xupybd 5y agoYeah but you are not going to get the speeds they boast about without steno.
- Xevi 5y agoI'm not the one you responded to, but I just wanted to add that it's still not steno. CharaChorder just has chording, but no theories, or whatever you call them for steno. You basically have to memorize every single chord on the CharaChorder afaik.
- xupybd 5y agoAh thanks for clarifying. I had thought that chording to produce a words was enough to qualify as steno. Happy to be corrected :)
- zozbot234 5y agoTypical steno keyboards can definitely type single characters. Of course the most sensible use of them involves chords (defined according to a text-specific 'theory'), but you might still use them for mostly single-character entry if, e.g. you were concerned about RSI.
- imglorp 5y agoApples and oranges anyway. Steno is phonemes, computer keyboards are characters.
