I've used a US-QWERTY keyboard layout my entire life. I've seen other layouts that do things like reduce the size of the enter/backspace keys, move the pipe operator (|) and can't wrap my head around how I would code on those.
What are your experiences? Are there any layouts that you prefer for coding over US English? Are there any symbols that you have a hard time reaching ($ for example)?
I mean the layout they mentioned is called "US" layout I'm sure they could deduct that there are other country specific ones
I've seen Tomorrow Never Dies, so I know there are Chinese keyboards.
The UK speaks English though, so I would have figured a UK keyboard would be at least very similar to a US keyboard, enough so that switching from one to the other wouldn't be too hard.
Every language has a different lay out because they are all based upon the typing machine.
Which needed a specific layout so the hammers didn't hit each other during commonly typed letters.
And yes, British English is a different language than American English. That is why you have things like colour and color.
