Chorded keyboards / keyboard mapping - need help: ![]() Clutch pedal = sidestep
TL DR: My left hand hurts like hell, even my wrist is bugging me, how can I set up a one-handed keyboard layout in Windows or OSX?
Long version: Looking for some piece of (free, hopefully) software that'll let me remap the keyboard/set up chording so I can exclusively type with my right hand. I'm left handed and a student who spends most of his free time playing video games/on IRC, so I suppose this was bound to happen. I need to keep writing and typing (entering exam period, final exam is on the 18th) so I can't just lay off/go see a physiotherapist. I mainly use OSX to do homework so I would vastly prefer an OSX-based solution.
Does anyone have any ideas? I downloaded ukeleleWorshipper of Ahura Mazda, as proclaimed by Zoroadster

Multiple options are available but all will require some serious relearning - which you may not have time to do amid study/exams.
One possibility - and I suspect it comes free with OSX as it does with Windoze - is one-handed Dvorak layout. It's apparently a remapping of the standard keyboard to one that is easier to use with one hand (both left and right versions are available).
Another is to find something in the way of keyboard mirroring software (only one I found was for left-hand use, sorry) that maps one half of the keyboard back onto the other when a specific key is pressed.
Another option is to learn how to type one-handed on a standard keyboard - http://www.aboutonehandtyping.com/howto.htmlDangerously Genre Savvy since ages ago...

I've figured out a decent layout using ukeleleWorshipper of Ahura Mazda, as proclaimed by Zoroadster
The system doesn't know you right now, so no post button for you.
You need to Get Known to get one of those.
