The worse part is that on the "standard" Dvorak the matching brackets are on the
same key.
(that is, instead of [] unshifted and {} shifted... it's like [{ unshifted
and ]} shifted.)
That tripped me up some when I set up the Dvorak keyboard back when I was
running Linux on my old computer... (the default commandline dvorak layout was
different than the default xwindows dvorak layout!....)
