swedish-lindhe ErgoDox (EZ) keymap

This is a setup that is very useful for me. It may or may not be for you. I will use it in conjunction with the A5 overlayed sv_SE layout.

The layout is subject to change (in particular I'm thinking about adding a macro recording feature), but it have not changed much the past year or two so you can expect it to be stable enough to learn it.

A5: http://aoeu.info/s/dvorak/svorak My xkb map: https://github.com/lindhe/dotfiles/blob/master/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/se-A5

The most major points:

I think the layout image can be found on www.keyboard-layout-editor.com

L0:

Easily accessible F11 key for fullscreening
Print screen
Middle mouse button for X-paste
Improved reachability of meta buttons (LCtrl, LALt, AltGr, LGui etc.)
Cluster Page Up/Down + Home/End by the right thumb
Vim-like arrow layout in right bottom row
Set media layer toggle to right thumb (Enter)
Set apostrophe on LCtl (putting it next to some other small characters)

L1:

Full function key layout
Teensy button

L2:

Improved media buttons layout (close by the jkl; Vim binding)
Improved layout of emulated mouse buttons

LED behaviour to binary+CAPS

The ErgoDox LEDs on this layout is using the two rightmost LEDs as the two LSB in a two digit binary number, representing layer 0, 1, 2 and 3. The leftmost byte/LED indicates CAPS status.
