It's set up like this on my Minivan, so in the interest of consistency... + + - `Enter/Shift` + + I use both the left and right shift keys when I type. When I want to modify a key with shift, I hold shift with the hand opposite the one typing the key. In the default keymap, Enter is where shift would be on a standard keyboard layout. Oh, muscle memory. + + - `Tab/Hyper` (Super+Ctrl+Shift+Alt) + + It's great to be able to use Tab as a custom modifier key. I tend to use [Hyper](http://brettterpstra.com/2012/12/08/a-useful-caps-lock-key/) commands for various OS-specific operations depending on what machine I'm working on. + + - `Backtick/Meh` (Ctrl+Shift+Alt) + + Why use backtick in the lower left corner? I use it as my tmux prefix key, so I need to type it more frequently than most people. Putting it on the base layer works well for me. The "Meh" mapping is just a less-cool "Hyper"; the same, just without Super. + +- **Swapped responsibilities of "lower" and "raise" layers** + + I prefer to use symbols via the "raise" layer, and numbers via the "lower" layer. + +- **Removed Plover layer** + + I don't intend to use stenography anytime soon, so Plover just didn't have a place in my keymap. + + +## Qwerty + +``` +,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. +| ` | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 0 | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Tab | Q | W | E | R | T | Y | U | I | O | P | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Esc | A | S | D | F | G | H | J | K | L | ; | " | +|------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Shift| Z | X | C | V | B | N | M | , | . | / |Enter | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| ` | Ctrl | Alt | GUI |Lower | Space |Raise | Left | Down | Up |Right | +`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' +``` + +## Colemak + +``` +,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. +| ` | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 0 | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Tab | Q | W | F | P | G | J | L | U | Y | ; | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Esc | A | R | S | T | D | H | N | E | I | O | " | +|------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Shift| Z | X | C | V | B | K | M | , | . | / |Enter | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| ` | Ctrl | Alt | GUI |Lower |Space |Space |Raise | Left | Down | Up |Right | +`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' +``` + +## Dvorak + +``` +,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. +| ` | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 0 | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Tab | " | , | . | P | Y | F | G | C | R | L | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Esc | A | O | E | U | I | D | H | T | N | S | - | +|------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Shift| ; | Q | J | K | X | B | M | W | V | Z |Enter | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| ` | Ctrl | Alt | GUI |Lower | Space |Raise | Left | Down | Up |Right | +`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' +``` + +## Lower + +This is where I put the number row, a numpad cluster, function keys, and media controls.
