The character layout on the keyboards of our computers dates from more than one century and had been designed for reasons which are no longer standing. This layout is all the more annoying when the text input is doing with one finger (or via a stylus) such as for example on soft-keyboards.This article proposes a system (based on a genetic algorithm) making it possible to generate key layouts with a character arrangement which theoretically enable to increase the text input speed. The generation of soft keyboard with our system was tested for English and French. The keyboards we propose, engendered from our system, would theoretically increase the text input speed with a stylus of almost 50% compared with the qwerty and azerty soft keyboards.
