Buswerks' 4x12 Ortholinear Layout
============================
For use on Planck, Let's Split, and similar keyboards
### Layout Overview
- Main Layer
- An additional shift key is located on the right space key (only works for grid layouts)
- Enter is located on the Raise key (layer-tap)
- The left and right shift keys function as Space Cadet shift keys
- The bottom left key is the Adjust modifier
- Escape is in the traditional Caps Lock position
- Holding down the escape key acts as LGUI (intended for macOS use)
- Lower
- There is a numpad on the right hand (4, 5, and 6 are located under JKL/NEI/HTN)
- Plus and minus keys are located to the right of the numpad
- All other symbols are located on the other side of the keyboard, in a somewhat logical order
- Symbols from the number row are in order, starting on the left pinky.
- Equals and underscore are in easily accessible spots, because they are more commonly used in programming
- The ampersand is less common, so it is moved to the right of the equals symbol
- Raise
- Vim-style arrow keys
- Above the arrow keys are media controls
- Below are home, end, pgup, and pgdn
- The left hand has all three types of braces
- Curly braces are under the index and middle fingers for easy access during programming, and because parentheses are already available through Space Cadet shift
- Adjust
- Function keys are located along the top row (reset is moved to accommodate this)
