What is the difference between Polish and Polish Pro in input sources?

I just wanted to know the differences for both input sources, or if there even was one.


Thanks

PrusOperation,


yes, there’s a difference between them. The “Pro” in “Polish Pro” is short for “Programmer”. The Polish Pro input source is essentially a US English keyboard layout with the characters generated using an Option key oriented towards the additional letters needed for the Polish language. (Programmers tend to use the full range of punctuation in the US English input source for writing their programs.) The Polish input source is a more traditional QWERTZ-variant keyboard layout, with dedicated keys for Polish letters (e.g. Ł, Ż).
