Hello,

I love the workman layout, it gives such a pleasant writing experience that for me it wasn't a problem starting back to 20wpm.

But this is when I write in english only. In this globalised world, a lot a people use they keyboard for multiple language. Like a lot of programmer from a non-English speaking country I use at least two language: English for code/work/internet and my mother-tongue. And maybe a third one if one day I decide to move to another country.

My first question is how could I do a mapping like the workman layout for another language ? More specific: given a set of character and their respective frequency , how can I come out with an ergonimical layout ?

Also I believe the joy of using workman come from the fact that one would not the same finger twice, and "rolling" sequence like 'th' will happen quite often.

So my second question is how could I improve the layout I got from the first question to reduce the number of 'same finger' sequence and increase the number of 'rolling' sequence ?

Would you share some code, tools , article that helped you building the workman layout ?

Thanks you in advance :)
