# callum’s planck layout
|
|
|
|
|
|
This is a layout for the grid planck, built with a few ideals in mind:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Consistent and minimal response times should be maintained. Keys that react
|
|
|
differently depending on whether they are tapped or held, keys that react
|
|
|
differently if they are double tapped, etc. should be avoided – they
|
|
|
inevitably send their keycode later than a normal key – interrupting the
|
|
|
immediate feedback from the screen. Therefore we restrict ourselves to
|
|
|
chording as our only means of getting more than one symbol out of a single
|
|
|
physical key.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- The hands should never need to leave the home position. The usual culprit for
|
|
|
this is the arrow cluster, so the arrow cluster should be as close to home as
|
|
|
possible.
|
|
|
|
|
|
- There should be two of every modifier (one on each side), otherwise certain
|
|
|
long key combinations become hard to make.
|
|
|
|
|
|
We have five layers. A `BASE` layer, in colemak; a `MOVE` layer, with an arrow
|
|
|
cluster, other movement keys, and hotkeys; a `SYMB` layer, with numbers and
|
|
|
symbols; a `FUNC` layer, with function keys and media keys; and a `MORE` layer,
|
|
|
with stuff that doesn’t fit anywhere else. The `MORE` layer is activated by
|
|
|
holding the Move and Symb keys simultaniously.
