Oh, that is nice too.  I'm not a fan of QWERTY.  Of course I doubt I'll ever use Colemak ?

I was thinking Khmer, or Baybayin, or Hangul, or Linear A.

Maybe someone could write an APL interpreter and/or compiler, and thus of course an APL keyboard would be a necessity—not to mention that the APL character set would also have to be supported...

I had a class in college that touched on APL (one of four languages we spent two weeks each covering). That is some terse hard to read code (though I'm sure if I had cause to use it as often as C / C++ I'd be used to it and find it second nature).
