# Gipsy-King's Cornelius layout
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Common typing only needs a base and a symbols layer. Layer changes are on the
|
||
|
|
thumbs *including* shift and non-english variants.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The importance of having shift on your thumbs is that you don't need to press
|
||
|
|
some letters with pinky OR ring, depending on shift.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Base QWERTY layer
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Tab, Backspace, Space, Ctrl/Alt/Mod are similar to a generic keyboard.
|
||
|
|
* Esc is like when you remap CapsLock to Esc on a generic keyboard (vim).
|
||
|
|
* Enter is on right thumb and raises Symbol layer on hold, because you rarely
|
||
|
|
hold.
|
||
|
|
* Shifts are on both thumbs!
|
||
|
|
* Leftmost thumb changes to Xmonad window management layer.
|
||
|
|
* Rightmost thumb is Right-Alt which is for `us-intl-altgr` layout (althoug I
|
||
|
|
use kmonad to universally map international characters on all keyboards).
|
||
|
|
* `-` and `=` are on the lower pinkies.
|
||
|
|
* `F20` is mic-mute on my thinkpad laptop.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Symbol layer (Raise)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* Top row is numbers, bottom row are their symbols. Most people do it the other
|
||
|
|
way 'round.
|
||
|
|
* Middle row has curly brackets, and some navigation and arrows.
|
||
|
|
* Square brackets are on the lower pinkies.
|
||
|
|
* ```~\|`` are places aroung top/outer corners.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Xmonad layer (Window management)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I use Xmonad to completely manage windows with just my keyboard. This layer
|
||
|
|
accommodates most shortcuts.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Fn layer
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Lastly, some macros, mousekeys (not used, really), some media keys, and the
|
||
|
|
function-keys (I use them maybe once in a decade).
