\ No newline at end of file +# smt's Preonic keymap + +This keymap is primarily based on the default Preonic keymap, which in turn is derived from Planck's default. + +Notable differences from the default are: + +1. **Dvorak by default** + + I happen to type in Dvorak, and prefer that layer to be the default on my keyboard. This is easy enough to switch around with Qwerty, Colemak, or whatever. + +2. **Right Shift** + + I use both the left and right shift keys when I type. When I want to modify a key with shift, I hold shift with the hand opposite the one typing the key. In the default keymap, Enter is where shift would be on a standard keyboard layout. Oh, muscle memory. + + Thankfully, QMK supports [mod-tap](https://github.com/jackhumbert/qmk_firmware/wiki#fun-with-modifier-keys) keys, and this allows me to set the Enter key to send a modifier (MOD_LSFT) when held, and KC_ENT when tapped. Awesome! + +## Dvorak (default) + +``` +,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. +| ` | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 0 | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Tab | " | , | . | P | Y | F | G | C | R | L | / | +|------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Esc | A | O | E | U | I | D | H | T | N | S | - | +|------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Shift| ; | Q | J | K | X | B | M | W | V | Z |Enter | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Brite| Ctrl | Alt | GUI |Lower | Space |Raise | Left | Down | Up |Right | +`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' +``` + +## Qwerty (same as default) + +``` +,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------. +| ` | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 0 | Bksp | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Tab | Q | W | E | R | T | Y | U | I | O | P | Del | +|------+------+------+------+------+-------------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Esc | A | S | D | F | G | H | J | K | L | ; | " | +|------+------+------+------+------+------|------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Shift| Z | X | C | V | B | N | M | , | . | / |Enter | +|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------| +| Brite| Ctrl | Alt | GUI |Lower | Space |Raise | Left | Down | Up |Right | +`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------' +``` + +## Lower + +This is where I put the number row, a numpad cluster, function keys, and some light navigation via Home/End/PageUp/PageDn.
