ErgoDox EZ 1337 configuration

Custom layout based on the default layout. Intended for interational users of us intl-altgr layout. Note that some common keys might be missing, as this layout is intented to be used on *nix systems by users familiar with their system. The layout is geared towards avoiding using the rat (mouse for those of you who are unfamiliar with tiling window managers) as much as possibly.

Layouts

All layer images created using keyboard-layout-editor

Base layer

The base layer here is marked with the us international alt-gr layout, including characters bound to what on an iso keyboard would be alt-gr and on an ansi keyboard right alt.

Regular (and irregular) modifier keys are marked with a yellowish gray. Layer moderators are marked with blue, red and green, which are the same colors each layer displays on the LEDs when active.

All of the layer switch keys, except for the two center keys marked L1 TOG, are dual purpose. Hence for example the top left key produces ESC if tapped, and temporarilly toggles L3 when hold down. The two center L1 TOG keys toggle L1 on and off for more permanent layer toggling.

Layer 1 - Symbols

Layer 2 - Media and Mouse
