Notably the Hyper hotkey, the press and hold, +and a way to have my beloved £ :pound: symbol available<sup>[1](#unicode)</sup>. Why not switch to a GB +layout? Well the computers I use are US keymap'd and I can't always change +that. Plus I've got used to 2/@ and 3/# and moving to the ergodox was hard +enough. :sweat_smile: + +I started from the default and edited from there as I needed. It's somewhat +similar to a regular layout, particularly R1 and shift/controls. I ended up +with a few keys that were blank, so I'm testing out some shortcuts. Alt+F4 for +quitting things in Windows, is one example, but I felt it was better placed on +the 1st layer - in case of fat fingers. + +Layout +------- + + + +### Base Layer + +``` +,--------------------------------------------------. ,--------------------------------------------------. +| ESC | 1! | 2@ | 3# | 4$ | 5% | 6^ | | 7& | 8* | 9( | 0) | -_ | += | BkSp | +|--------+------+------+------+------+-------------| |------+------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| Tab | Q | W | E | R | T | { | | } | Y | U | I | O | P | |\ | +|--------+------+------+------+------+------| [ | | ] |------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| Win | A | S | D | F | G |------| |------| H | J | K | L | :; | '" | +|--------+------+------+------+------+------| Home | | End |------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| LShift |Z/Alt | X | C | V | B | | | | N | M | , | . | Alt | RShift | +`--------+------+------+------+------+-------------' `-------------+------+------+------+------+--------' + |LCtrl | COPY | PASTE| Left | Right| | Down | Up |Hyper | `~ | RCtrl | + `----------------------------------' `----------------------------------' + ,-------------. ,-------------. + Hyper = Ctrl+Super+Alt+Shift | ~L3 | F5 | | F2 | ~L2 | + ,------|------|------| |------+------+------. + | | | PgUp | | Ins | | | + | Enter| BkSp |------| |------| ~L1 |Space | + | | | PgDn | | Del | | | + `--------------------' `--------------------' +``` + +### Symbol Layer + +``` +,--------------------------------------------------. ,--------------------------------------------------. +| | F1 | F2 | F3 | F4 | F5 | F6 | | F7 | F8 | F9 | F10 | F11 | F12 |PrintScr| +|--------+------+------+------+------+-------------| |------+------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| | ! | @ | { | } | | | | | | Up | 7 | 8 | 9 | * | | +|--------+------+------+------+------+------| | | |------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| | # | $ | ( | ) | ` |------| |------| Down | 4 | 5 | 6 | + | | +|--------+------+------+------+------+------| | | |------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| | % | ^ | [ | ] | ~ | | | | & | 1 | 2 | 3 | \ | | +`--------+------+------+------+------+-------------' `-------------+------+------+------+------+--------' + | | £ | | | | | | . | 0 | = |Alt+F4| + `----------------------------------' `----------------------------------' + ↑ ,-------------. ,-------------. + THERE! | | | | | | + ,------|------|------| |------+------+------. + CAD = Ctrl + Alt + Delete | | | | | | | | + | | |------| |------| | | + | | | | | CAD | | | + `--------------------' `--------------------' +``` +### Media Layer + +Not touched this, not used either. + +``` +,--------------------------------------------------. ,--------------------------------------------------. +| TEENSY | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | +|--------+------+------+------+------+-------------| |------+------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| | | | MsUp | | | | | | | | | | | | +|--------+------+------+------+------+------| | | |------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| | |MsLeft|MsDown|MsRght| |------| |------| | | | | | Play | +|--------+------+------+------+------+------| | | |------+------+------+------+------+--------| +| | | | | | | | | | | | Prev | Next | | | +`--------+------+------+------+------+-------------' `-------------+------+------+------+------+--------' + | | | | Lclk | Rclk | |VolDn |VolUp | Mute | | | + `----------------------------------' `----------------------------------' + ,-------------. ,-------------. + | | | | | | + ,------|------|------| |------+------+------. + | | | | | | |Brwser| + | | |------| |------| |Back | + | | | | | | | | + `--------------------' `--------------------' +``` +### Unicode Layer + +Used to enter/test unicode input on Windows.
