A just for fun (but functional) one-handed typing script using AutoHotkey to mirror the right half of the keyboard onto the left.

Please continue reading or see the following link for futher documentation: http://blog.lennyevans.net/2011/10/half-qwerty-mirrored-keyboard.html

This script mirrors the right half of the keyboard onto the left half of the keyboard when the space bar is held down (instead of just pressed). It is a one-handed (specifically left-handed) typing script created in AutoHotkey_L, which I understand is now the main branch of AutoHotkey.

WASD arrow keys and WASD mouse control (basic) are also implemented as well as the ability to turn the script on and off. It's necessary to turn the script off when typing with both hands because there is a small delay on some characters as a consequence of using the space bar as the modifier (mirror) key.

It is surprisingly easier to type this way than expected, though a typing tutor does help significantly.

One of the keys in the script calls an application named "Everything". "Everything" is a replacement for windows search that I really like and use. You may need to remove that line to prevent an error when using the associated button if you don't have the "Everything" tool.
