# bcat's Lily58 layout
|
|
|
|
This split ergo layout is standard QWERTY on the default layer, with symbols on
|
|
the lower layer, numbers/navigation on the raise layer, and media keys centered
|
|
around the ESDF cluster in the adjust (raise + lower) layer. A few general
|
|
principles went into this layout:
|
|
|
|
* The number row is optional, as are the outermost bottom row keys and the
|
|
"extra" keys on the innnermost columns below the controllers. This allows me to
|
|
switch between this keyboard and a 40% like the
|
|
[Crkbd](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/lily58/keymaps/bcat)
|
|
without breaking muscle memory.
|
|
|
|
* Space and Enter are on the big thumb keys so they're easy to press.
|
|
|
|
* There are two shift keys because Right Shift is all that important, but just
|
|
because I don't have any better ideas for what to put there.
|
|
|
|
* Arrow keys are on VIM-style HJKL keys.
|
|
|
|
* Home/End and Page Up/Page Down are equivalent to the arrow keys, but
|
|
translated down one row.
|
|
|
|
* Navigation is usable with just the right hand, to enable left-handed mousing
|
|
at the same time. Additionally, Web page scrolling (Space, Shift+Space) is
|
|
possible with just the left hand, for writing at the same time as scrolling.
|
|
|
|
* Escape is easy to reach because Vim is life.
|
|
|
|
* Since most of the modifiers are on the left half, keys frequently pressed
|
|
together with mods (e.g., numbers, function keys, etc.) are on the Raise layer
|
|
activated by the right thumb.
|
|
|
|
* Every key on a TKL has a binding.
|
|
|
|
* Backspace is bound in the same place on every layer to avoid having to let go
|
|
of layer-shift keys to fix a mistake.
|
|
|
|
* Likewise, the comma and period keys are not rebound on the raise layer to
|
|
allow typing numbers with thousand separators and decimal points without
|
|
releasing the layer key.
|
|
|
|
* Brackets and braces are on or near the home row for quick access when coding.
|
|
They're positioned below the parens on the Raise layer for easy recall.
|
|
|
|
* For consistency, mods aren't rebound on layers (except for the Tab key).
