`Dvorak vs. Qwerty' is a keyboard usage meter. It measures how many centimeters you have to move your fingers from the default touch typing positions to type certain piece of text. Hopefully this tool will help people realize that Dvorak keyboard layout is superior to the older Qwerty.
Update 0.2.1: Fixed a problem in the widget file (some users had problems installing the widget) and added some UI functionality.
The way it counts the distance is not 100% correct in my opinion. If you type the word "door" for example, the distance to the "o" is counted twice, but your finger is already there after you typed it the first time, isn't it?
