     @p @icedquinn @fba slash switches make more sense for US keyboard layouts

     @romin @fba @icedquinn Unix was created on US keyboards, but slashes are used for paths.
     
     In other news, Microsoft pushed keyboard manufacturers to move the control key from its rightful place (left of A) to the lower left, which made Wordstar keybindings inconvenient but their own keybindings (^Z to undo, ^C to copy, ^X, ^V, etc.) still within reach.

     @p @icedquinn @fba @romin Were 60s typewriters even standardized to be considered an "US" keyboard?

     @mint @fba @icedquinn @romin QWERTY had won by then, punctuation characters usually look like they're in about the place you expect usually. At least in the case of the Teletype Model 33 ASR, the layout is almost the same.
