Dvorak keyboard layout
======================

This layout is intended for use with Western European languages.


Coverage
--------

Typing should be of comparable ease to the following specialized layouts.

QWERTY:
- Danish
- Dutch
- English
- Faroese
- Icelandic
- Irish
- Italian
- Norwegian
- Portugese
- Spanish
- Swedish
QWERTZ:
- German
- Swiss
AZERTY:
- French

A symbolic variant is provided that recreates the us(symbolic) layout for
the Dvorak key arrangement.


Installation
------------

System-wide installation is possible by copying the `symols` and `rules`
directories to `$XKB_CONFIG_EXTRA_PATH` (typically `/etc/xkb`).
User-specific installation is possible by copying the `symols` and `rules`
directories to `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/xkb/` (typically `$HOME/.config/xkb`).

Note that if an `evdev.xml` rules file is already present, its contents
need to be merged with those in the rules file provided here.
