Oh, and Luke, the game will be Open Source. So go ahead and modify it

work fine with any kind of keyboard? Well, aside from the moving
parts. That would need modification for different keyboard types.
Yeah, it works fine for all kinds of keyboards.  but think about it:
stage 1 for qwerty:
ffff jjjj ffff jjjj fjfjfjfj jfjfjfj etc.

stage 2:
df fd jk kj etc.

stage 1 on a dvorak:
uh huh uh huh etc.

stage 2 on a dvorak:
the hut het teh tut etc.

The layouts are different so the order in which you learn the keys is different...
Unless your typing program is really just a speed test, then it doesn't matter what layout it's for -
except that if you use english words us dvorak people will probably beat you qwertyers ;)
I feel like that tale about the guy going up against the steam engine. :D


I hope this has enlightened you ;)
