    Workman keyboard layout

  • I learnt Workman a decade ago to prevent RSI, but it is also one of the most efficient layouts out when it comes to hand movement and finger utilization, with English at least.

    The fastest typists swear by Colemak-DH which just like Workman fixes many of the shortcomings of Colemak.

    To me Workman feels the best, but anything that's not QWERTY is measurably better, whereas the difference between Colemak, Dvorak and so on is more circumstantial.
