Sean Hunter's Planck Layout
Main layout
Inspired by my old typematrix dvorak keyboard, with escape, tab, enter and backspace in the middle.

Lower
With Lower, the numbers are on the home row. Brackets and braces are down the
centre of the keyboard when holding lower, and most other special characters,
can be found on the row below home. One row up are the main function keys.
The arrow keys become Home
, End
and Page Up
and Page Down
.

`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------'
Raise
With Raise, the middle row functions as though we are holding shift and typing
numbers. This makes it a little easier than trying to hold lower and shift at
the same time. The row below home is a set of keys mapped from Gui-1
to
Gui-0
. I use these to change virtual desktops on i3. I
also include 'right' versions of the modifier keys on here.

Adjust
Raise and lower at the same time give an adjustment layer, which allows
changing to the numpad and movement layer, and adjusting the backlights
(assuming you have them - I don't yet). I have also added various media keys
and the all-important Reset
key for programming the keyboard. I've got the
ability to swap Alt
and Gui
in hardware and three special keys set up for
hammerspoon on mac. If I ever start using this
keyboard seriously on mac again (I'm using it mainly on Windows and Linux atm)
I'll write a special Mac mode and redo all my hammerspoon config to be more
like i3 on Linux.

Numpad
I have added a numpad, although this is a little annoying at the moment as you
have to first press NumLock
to use. I guess I could make a macro so as soon as
you go into numpad mode it turns NumLock
on.

Software Dvorak mode
I have implemented a version of the main, lower and raise maps that works if the computer itself is in dvorak mode at the os level. This allows me to work well on my laptop when I have to take it with me (eg to go to a meeting) and don't want the keyboard with me. I simply set it in dvorak mode in the os and then put the keyboard into this mode.
TODO
- Actually learn to use the media keys
