Well ... I switch between Qwerty and Dvorak. 2x the pain! That's one thing that I didn't foresee when learning Dvorak.

To use a shortcut, I need to know :

1) What keyboard layout am I using?

2) Am I using a Kinesis or standard keyboard?

3) What OS am I using?

4) What app I'm using?

Don't do it, kids. Now I'm so invested in Dvorak that I can't go back. It's an irreversible change.

It's suprising, but muscle memory somehow makes all of this work (most of the time). Sometimes I screw up horribly.
