The Matrixman Ergodox / Split-Planck Keyboard Layout

The problem

These layouts were designed to give my aching pinkeys a break

The Design

  • Pinkeys do less:
    • Left q, a, z, `, _, =, [Shift], [F1] [Click], [Right Click]
    • Right p, ', /, |, -, +, [Shift], [F10], [F11], [F12]
  • Index fingers do more:
    • Left: r, f, v, t, g, b, &, $, !, /, (, {, <, [, [Ctrl], [Tab], [Alt], [PrintScr]
    • Right: u, j, m, y, h, n, 7, 4, 1, , ), }, >, ], ;, [Ctrl], [Insert], [Alt], [Pause]
  • Thumbs do more:
    • Left: [Esc], :, [Shift], [Tab]
    • Right: [Space], ;, [Shift], [Backspace]
  • Palm Presses too:
    • Left: [Ctrl], "
    • Right: [Ctrl, [Enter]

The Plan

I keep an Ergodox at home and at work, and when I'm mobile, I carry a planck. These keymaps are designed to minimize the difficulty of switching between the two.

Other features

  • 10-key at home row for right hand
  • "Matching" symbols use same finger on opposite hand: <> [] {} /\ () 1! 2@ 3# 4$ 5% 6^ 7& 8* -_ +=
  • Supports vim-like (hjkl) movements:
    • mouse movement and scrolling
    • arrow keys and nav keys (home, end, pg up, pg down)
  • All non-modal keys mapped (all keys from a typical 105 key keyboard except caps, num, and scroll lock)

Wherever the Ergodox has keys that the Planck doesn't, whichever key would be expected on a typical 105 key is in that place
