I severely broke my wrist some years ago, which prevented me from using my dominant hand for many weeks. During this time, I used an AuthoHotKey script based on the Matias documentation in order to allow myself to continue to work efficiently in my technical role. The script worked by "mirroring" the layout of the left side of the keyboard with the right during the time when the spacebar was continuously held down. A momentary press of the spacebar still produced a space character.
I can wholeheartedly endorse this method. I never measured it precisely, but I would say I was still upwards of 80% proficient in typing speed using this script with just one hand.
