Got any interesting layouts?

(1/5) > >>

iandoug:
Hi all

About to start with another round of layout tests, in our never-ending mission to seek out new worlds and boldy go where no keyboard has gone before (etc.).

So if you have any suggestions for layouts, or your own that you'd like me to include, please advise... :-)

Some restrictions:
1. Will be using Keyboard Layout Analyzer, using Patricks's original scoring as well as Den's first revised scoring.
2. So only able to handle layouts for ANSI, ErgoDox/Kinesis, and ErgoLinear/Matrix. Regret can't do Planck/etc styles at the moment.
3. Tests will be mostly English, some programming, and assorted other things typeable on standard US ANSI. Am not testing ISO/Euro layouts at the moment.

Following layouts are already in the mix:

I have my own 30-key layout called DSend that I use on ortholinear boards if you want to include it.

r s n t g , a e h i '
z w m d b . o y k j

Something like attached? Not sure where to put the keys not mentioned (or even exact form factor, for that matter),
Corrections welcome. :-)

Looks good! I switch around my modifiers a bit, but that shouldn't matter too much for comparisons.

@Zammux
Not sure if this effects KLA but I'd put the switch the shift key with the tilde and quote on each side. Lots better on the pinky in the real world :)
What language is that layout for? The O/A combo on the index finger looks interesting.

@Ian
I guess its probably best to use eNNe 102.02 instead of eNNe-10246 :)

Probably a good idea to have people add the language(s) for the layout too and have them put it in KLA of possible
Saves you some headache :)
