I'm actually a Dvorak typist myself, so it definitely works! English dictionary and Qwerty/Dvorak layout only for now.



I just downloaded the sample app. Neat stuff.

Is caps-lock toggling the only way to use it in the paid app, or does the menu item turn it on and off? Do numbers and other coding-symbols get chorded in the main app? Also, is there any research into how long it takes to go from Dvorak to this sort of style?


Thanks for trying the app. How does the technique work for you? I don't have any official numbers, but it seems like many people can type 30+ words per minute with very little learning. Faster with practice.

Currently no chording for numbers or programmer symbols. Basic punctuation marks (,.:;?! etc.) are predicted at the end of words. Caps Lock is the current toggle switch, but I'll be adding a custom option in the next version.
