I have the Dvorak keymapping select on my Mac. The script type("hello world") actually inserts "d.nnr ,rpne".

This is one of the most often ignored facts (it is in fact written in the docs):
type() only supports the US standard keyboard (qwerty) layout and even not all keys!
and nothing else and nothing can be done about that - full stop ;-)
Use paste() instead to type text and concentrate with type() on the functional keys.
