i'm planning on switching to a dvorak keyboard as it seems much better than qwerty

before that, i want to test the layout to know if it's difference or if i should stick to qwerty

is there any easy way to temprorarily enable dvorak?

SOLUTION:

Code:
setxkbmap dvorak se

don't think you should use:
Code:
setxkbmap dvorak se

The se will make you use the swedish version (Svorak).

Xorg comes with dvorak versions for:
Norway (no)
Sweden (se,sv)
UK (gb)
France (fr)

If neither of those fits you'll have to invent your own localization of Dvorak or stick with the original one.

as you might not know i actually am swedish :wink:

only living in belgium temporarily

anyway, i'll be trying to learn the "svorak" layout and see if i'll buy a real keyboard with it

and, i couldn't use the command mentioned because it din't give me the right layout
i had to download another layout so this my actual command:

Code:
setxkbmap svorak svorak


P.S. har du lyckats få svorak att funka i vim? 8)
