Ask HN: How to type better one handed?

There used to be patents on Half Qwerty keyboards, but I think those died, so there should be options of either physical keyboards (might be a bit expensive for only a couple of months use - but I guess you could donate it to a local school after you've finished with it) or software half qwerty keyboards.

There are dvorak layouts for one hand.

Sticky keys. Most mainstream operating systems now have an accessibility setting where double-pressing modifier keys (shift, ctrl, etc) will cause them to stay active for an extended period. This should save you some contortions when typing uppercase letters, keyboard shortcuts, etc.

One idea: use the mouse and a "virtual keyboard", "software keyboard", or "on-screen keyboard", an entry device where you point the mouse and click keys. There is a virtual keyboard built in to Windows, don't know about OSX.

Pair programming?
