# 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](https://i3wm.org/). 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]( http://www.hammerspoon.org/) 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.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```

||

## Movement
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
I have added a movement layer but at present I seldom use it.

## 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
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Actually learn to use the media keys
|
