Urdu QWERTY Keyboard

Compatible with mac OS
This is a mac OS compatible keyboard layout for typing Urdu with a phonetic layout. To install it, place the file (UrduQWERTY.bundle) into this directory in a Finder window: Macintosh HD → Users → (your username) → Library → Keyboard Layouts.
Note that the name of your drive might be something other than Macintosh HD. Also, your "Library" directory might be hidden. To make it visible, use this shortcut (command+shift+.) and then use the same shortcut when you're finished to make those files invisible again.
