Depends on who you talk to. SUN and DEC keyboards put the ctrl key just left of the A and the caps lock key below the left shift. They also stick \ where enter is supposed to be and sometimes don't have an escape key (which makes vi a barrel of fun to use). Some people prefer that layout, but most people who grew up with the PC style keyboard intensely dislike them. -- _ _ _ ___ ____ ___ ______________________________________ / \/ \ | ||_ _|| _ \|___| | Jason Andresen -- jandrese@mitre.org / /\/\ \ | | | | | |/ /|_|_ | Views expressed may not reflect those /_/ \_\|_| |_| |_|\_\|___| | of the Mitre Corporation.
