I know it's a Colemak forum, but... has anyone put consistent time into MTGAP? To be clear, I mean these for either the main 30 or the full standard keyboard:
^ ~ [ { < | # > } ] % Q Z
Y P O U J K D L C W Y P O U = K D L C W X + @
I N E A ; M H T S R I N E A : M H T S R !
Q Z < > ? B F G V X ` ? * ; & B F G V J
y p o u j k d l c w \ 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 q z
i n e a , m h t s r y p o u - k d l c w x / $
q z / . : b f g v x i n e a , m h t s r "
( ) ' . _ b f g v j(Reference: Keyboard Layout Project)
I'm determined to make the switch from QWERTY, have been trying new layouts, and this one seemed to resonate with me more than Colemak did. But I know there are advantages to going with an almost-standard, such as easy keyboard switch on anyone's machine.
I don't care about preserving shortcuts, etc... just looking for pure typing improvement. As a programmer, I am also going to try one of the AltGr programmer layouts, like this from forum user tomlu:
$ { } \ 1 + [ ]
@ * : / " 0 = ( ) ; !
~ | & # _ - < >(Reference: Programmer symbols layout)
Anyway, I would like to hear from anyone who committed to MTGAP. Thanks!
