With the move to QMK through Stapelberg replacement controller, I've cleaned up the layouts a bit while adding number/symbol layer. + +There are only minor changes in the base keywell layout (e.g., CapsLock is ESC, arrow clusters on one side), while the thumb clusters deviate more from the default layout. + +Changes to the thumb clusters include: +* The navigations keys moved to Fn layers. +* The function of 2u keys have been reversed - I've always used space with my left thumb, and I find it more helpful to have access to Space and Enter while using my mouse/trackball. +* Enter and Backspace have been duplicated on both clusters. +* The 2u keys serve dual function as momentary layer switchers. + +I'm frequently fiddle around with the layouts as I find certain things I want to try out. + -- cgit v1.2.3
