-## Layer 1 - Symbols
+The base layer here is marked with the us international alt-gr layout,
+including characters bound to what on an iso keyboard would be alt-gr
+and on an ansi keyboard right alt.

+Regular (and irregular) modifier keys are marked with a yellowish
+gray. Layer moderators are marked with blue, red and green, which are
+the same colors each layer displays on the LEDs when active.
-## Layer 2 - Media and Mouse
+All of the layer switch keys, except for the two center keys marked L1
+TOG, are dual purpose. Hence for example the top left key produces ESC
+if tapped, and temporarilly toggles L3 when hold down. The two center
+L1 TOG keys toggle L1 on and off for more permanent layer toggling.
