From 7c0f2ae6d1c1d3f168a5919287b6608b092b3dba Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Morton Jonuschat Date: Tue, 14 May 2019 12:12:29 -0700 Subject: [Keymap] Neo2 for ErgoDox on MacOS US QWERTY / ABC Extended keymap (#5862) This is a Neo2 inspired layout that is meant to be fully usable on MacOS when used with the default US QWERTY/ABC Extended keymap. Neo2 layers 1-4 have been almost fully implemented in hardware. Layers 5 and 6 (greek and mathematical symbols) have been left out for now as most of them aren't available on the default keymaps. Layer toggling for layer 3 on the right hand side utilizes a tap-toggle approach that is a combination of MO & LT macros. This is required to allow sending Y when tapped, @ when tapped while the SHIFT modifier is active and support momentarily toggling the layer while the key is held. --- layouts/community/ergodox/osx_neo2/readme.md | 219 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 219 insertions(+) create mode 100644 layouts/community/ergodox/osx_neo2/readme.md (limited to 'layouts/community/ergodox/osx_neo2/readme.md') diff --git a/layouts/community/ergodox/osx_neo2/readme.md b/layouts/community/ergodox/osx_neo2/readme.md new file mode 100644 index 0000000000..cab4dfe709 --- /dev/null +++ b/layouts/community/ergodox/osx_neo2/readme.md @@ -0,0 +1,219 @@ +# Neo 2 for ErgoDox on QWERTY + +# Description + +The Neo layout is an optimized German keyboard layout developed by the +Neo Users Group, supporting many Latin-based alphabets. The positions +of the letters are not only optimized for German letter frequency, +but also for typical groups of two or three letters.
