Sažetak
During the last several decades, the keyboard has proved to be the most important computer input device. It was inherited from the mechanical typewriter from whom computer keyboards inherited a suboptimal key layout. Better solutions have been kept out of use by economic pressure. An arguably optimal layout for the English language is the Dvorak layout. This article discusses the possibility of applying the same guidelines and ideas that shaped the Dvorak layout on keyboards used in other languages. Some of the questions answered are how good the Dvorak layout is in English, how good is it in other languages and how a language specific version would look like.
