The Ordinary Layout, a familiar and powerful layout
I bought an Ergodox EZ keyboard and it's pretty sweet. With advanced keyboards like this users can reprogram how the keys behave -- what keystrokes are sent when buttons are pressed.
The default layout which the keyboard comes preprogrammed with was, in my opinion, a bit discombobulated. It was hard to understand and many keys were in locations that felt foreign to me. Working on my own layout, I put almost all the keys back in their ordinary positions. I call it The Ordinary Layout and full documentation is included with it over on Github.
Very sane approach and well thought out. That makes transitioning between Ergodox and occasionally a laptop keyboard doable :)
ReplyDeleteAlso, Kudos for the detailed rationale behind it!
Could you link to editable versions / source of your layout images? I'd like to make some minor tweaks to the setup, but also document it.
Thanks a lot
