Change keyboard layout with python?

Question

I\'m working on a college system (windows XP) and want to set the keyboard to Dvorak when I log on. I currently have a python script that changes the desktop image.

Answer 1

I would use AutoHotKey to change the layout. You could write a script remapping the keys and compile it as an executable file.

For example

q::'
+q::"
w::,
+w::<
e::.
+e::>
r::p

etc.

Answer 2

to Change keyboard layout

import win32api
win32api.LoadKeyboardLayout('00000409',1) # to switch to english
win32api.LoadKeyboardLayout('00000401',1) # to switch to arabic

and for Dvorak :

win32api.LoadKeyboardLayout("00010409",1)

or

win32api.LoadKeyboardLayout("00020409",1)
