James Kay 4cf4fe80ec Just personal layout tweaks :) (#2557)
* More ergonomic mousekeys

* integrate some recent hardware changes by changing the Plover keymap

* use TX Bolt support instead of Plover toggles

* switching to steno is no longer as intrusive, so this can move back to BASE

Twey's Home Configuration

Layers

  • Layer 0: Non-ANSI Dvorak layout, with modified modifiers — all modifiers on thumb keys, as well as return and space.
  • Layer 1: Default symbol layout.
  • Layer 2: Plover-oriented stenography layer.
  • Layer 3: Extended media/mouse layout.

Hardware notes

The default Ergodox EZ keycaps are delightfully staggered, which seems like it would make them terrible for steno, but in fact flipping the top row (QWERTYUIOP) and the middle thumb keys upside down brings them close enough together to give a rather pleasant steno experience, without interfering much with standard Dvorak typing.
