Dvorak - UK Punctuation

After trying many includud dvorak layouts, I've found that the UK variants included with most operating systems do not match the punctuation of UK-QWERTY closely enough for me. These are the layouts I use on my systems.

Download

Windows

Windows - ukdvk4.zip

This archive contains the binary installers and source.

Unix

Unix - dvorak-ukp.map

Unix - dvorak-ukp.map.gz

AUR - dvorak-ukp

Or download via curl with:

$ ​curl https://servc.eu/p/sslf/keymaps/dvorak-ukp.map > \
dvorak-ukp.map
# loadkeys dvorak-ukp.map

Or, if you're using a dvorak marked keyboard with a qwerty layout, type:

$ jgpn dyyloSzzo.pkjv.gzlzoonuzt.fmalozekrpat-gtlvmal V \ 
ekrpat-gtlvmal
# nraet.fo ekrpat-gtlvmal

Windows layout

The Windows layout is based off a design from http://www.tarind.com/ukdvorak.html, but with added accented keys and their capital equivalents when Alt-Gr is pressed.

Unix layout

The unix console keymap matches the Xorg GB,dvorakukp variant.
