Comment on Ask YC: Any of you use Dvorak?parent

Comments

Yeah I definitely feel like my wrists move a lot less using Dvorak, so it is more comfortable for long periods for me at least.

I'll have to try the caplocks/ctrl switching.

Steve Yegge's post "Effective Emacs" has instructions for how to do this, plus some other emacs tips: http://steve.yegge.googlepages.com/effective-emacs

Works best for me: making the caps be the escape key, and swapping alt and control.

I am a vim user.

Why swap alt and control: so that I can do control+whatever while pushing control with my thumb. No wrist or weird little finger streching to push the caps key.
