Hello everyone,
New forum, but long time Colemak user here. I've been exclusively typing on standard Colemak layout for a little over 4 years. Recently I started looking at the different Colemak forks and try out what extras they have to offer. So far DreymaR's CurlAngle(Z)Wide(')-ANSI ergonomic mod seems to be the most fitting—I really enjoy the wider hand placement—and I use PKL to emulate the layout.
I encountered some issues with DreymaR's mod that I decided to fix:
1) Dead keys wouldn't function: I was unable to type international characters unless the keyboard language was changed on Windows. For example, I couldn't type characters such as ő and ű, ą and ę.
2) Caps Lock when functioning as ‘backspace‘ would only delete the last typed character when held down.
I would like someone to go through the layout code for PKL that I had thrown together to make sure I didn't make any silly mistakes—I'm also open to suggestions:
