Years later, I鈥檝e finally programmed and begun using my infinity ergodox. It鈥檚 so fucking nice! I have full ergoclears in there, which is cherry mx clears with custom springs. When I bought my switches I also had them stickered and lubed.
Typing on this is so nice! I was already used to an ortholinear (non-staggered) layout thanks to my typematrix, so I鈥檝e only had to adjust to a few keys being in different spots, and the increased sensitivity. I鈥檓 still switching stuff around, too.

The secret to increasing your typing speed: touch typing
Tumblr media
The touch typing is an English expression that means typing without looking at the keyboard. Without training in touch typing, it is unlikely that you will make any significant progress. You will have to force yourself not to look at your keyboard. It will take a bit of training to acquire a mental representation of your keyboard, so that typing a letter is no longer conscious, but just a reflex. Your keyboard should become an extension of your hands as your mouse is, not something you have to constantly watch to type.
It must be impossible for most of you, but it's actually easier than you think. To give you an idea, after a little over a week, I managed to have a typing speed usable in my daily life. And I was writing lines of code all day with an online chat as the only means of communication, so to tell you that typing was essential for me. While it was not comfortable, but it was enough not to penalize me in my work and already very rewarding because I had made the jump in just two weeks.
For this there is, of course, no secret, it will take training and a little will (but not that much). First of all, you will have to practice a little every day using a software dedicated to this. I personally used Ktouch to do this. You can also try other software like Klavaro, Tipp10 or Type Faster. Take the one that seems to suit you best (although I strongly advise Ktouch, even install a virtual machine under Linux just to have it). Force yourself, every night, to spend 15 to 30 minutes, with a cloth on your hands not to look at the keyboard if necessary. You will progress in stages, but you will see that relatively quickly you will find again a typing comfort.
There are several schools:
> those who will tell you that from the moment you decided to touch typing, you have to do that and force yourself all day, without allowing yourself to look at the keyboard at all.
> those who will tell you that you can watch your keyboard from time to time, but not when you decide to do touch typing. You can insert touch typing sessions of 30 minutes in your day so you do not get too bad at first. And during these 30 minutes, you force yourself not to look at your keyboard.
> those who are inspired by the previous method, but who use a printed sheet of the keyboard to find the keys. It avoids the reflex of looking at the keyboard, and when you are ready, you can remove the sheet and you will not have the reflex to look at the keyboard so far.
For my part, I used the last method, I found it was the least frustrating for me.
Change keyboard layout
The touch typing is a good start, but to get the most out of it, I advise you to change keyboard layout at the same time. Indeed, the QWERTY keyboard layout you are currently using has not been thought for the typing efficiency of the French language. The result is an incessant movement of your hands to access the various keys most used (such as accents), possible pain in the fingers, and a relative efficiency.
In addition, changing keyboard layout at the same time as learning touch typing will allow you to learn touch typing faster and easier. Your brain will learn that when you look at the keyboard, you tap on a conventional QWERTY layout and that when you do not look at your keyboard, you switch to "non-QWERTY" mode with which you do not have bad habits (bad placement of especially fingers).
There are several keyboard layouts designed specifically for speed and comfort typing, just to name a few: Dvorak, Colmak, and B茅po.
I personally chose Bepo. If you type French from time to time, choose it without hesitation (note that I do programming and I write in English a good part of the day with no worries). Some advantages over an AZERTY of benefits:
> the most frequent letters are placed on the row of rest ... > ... taking into account the most common letter sequences; > the vowels, under the left hand, facilitate the alternation of the hands; > pairs () {} 芦禄 [] <> "" '', placed side by side, are more accessible.
What's more, the wiki is excellent and contains a lot of useful resources.
On the other hand, if you type only in English, or that accts acc茅s or particular keys of the French language do not matter to you, I would advise you Colmak.
With the combination Bep + Touch Typing, you will quickly exceed your current typing speed. After about a month you should have found the same typing speed as before. In addition to a bonus: your typing speed will continue to increase to at least twice as fast as before. Nice, no?
To measure your progress you can have fun on different sites like TypeRacer (racing cars that you advance by typing) or KeyHero.
Change the keyboard: the icing on the cake
If you want to push the approach to the end, I would strongly advise you to invest in an orthogonal keyboard. These keyboards have the distinction of having the keys aligned vertically, and not offset as normal keyboards. The shift of the keys between the rows coming from the technical constraints of the typewriters, it would be high time to remedy this heresy. It's very comfortable to type on such keyboards. Personally, I could not go back to my main keyboard.
The keyboard I have is a TypeMatrix keyboard. These keyboards have a very good price/quality ratio and even have "skin" with the Bepo keyboard directly. I would advise you to buy a completely blank keyboard or only with the special keys marked on it. Thanks to touch typing, having the letters written on the keys will not help you anyway (and a blank keyboard will force you not to look at it;)).
Another alternative is the Kinesis Advantage keyboard, a little more expensive, but completely adapted to the shape of your fingers.
It's up to you now, you have no excuses for not typing at least twice as fast!

Custom vim cheat sheet tailored for my keyboard and the weird layout I use. I have this printed out on the wall next to my monitor. It's a nice reference. ProTip: Don't have super-customized keyboard layouts and .vimrc's. You'll be completely lost when either is unavailable Dx
Here's the original. I recommend it for people who aren't weird like me and use normal keyboards/layouts. Google around and you will also find versions for colemak and normal dvorak.

My Keyboard
Typematrix 2030. I love those non-staggered key rows. And the enter and backspace keys are in the middle. So cool. You can buy cool silicone skins for the keyboard too, which protect from accidental spills and dust, and, if you bought a blank keyboard, let you switch out different skins for different layouts (dvorak, colemak, even workman I think). The skin I got is still mostly blank though, save for all the non-letter/number keys.
There are on-board switches to change between qwerty/dvorak/colemak layouts, as well as 102/106-key layouts for international stuffs and even a mac mode which switches alt and the super (command) key. All without needing to change anything on your computer. Which is great unless you use super-customized layouts like I do. Mine is a modified Programmer's Dvorak layout, with u and i switched, all the brackets lined up so they fall on the same finger in each hand, and the number row shifted over to better fit the typematrix design. I just put it on the 'mac mode' because the super key is easier to reach with my thumb that way. Yeah, typing on other computers/keyboards is shit. I usually just go with qwerty when I'm not on my linux boxes so that I'm not switching between my special dvorak and normal dvorak, which would be more confusing to me. Of course my typing speed decreases severely but...
The ability to program the layout into the keyboard itself would be great, but that will come whenever I can afford a Kinesis Advantage. Until then, this cheaper alternative will work amazingly.
