Hi all,
I recently got my displaywriter working on USB, largely due to Xwhatsit and his patience, now I'm trying to figure out a decent layout for it.
I'm taking all suggestions / layers, ideas, etc. I'm still not sure what I'll do with the nine blank keys.
Below, is the standard layout
["", "", {x:16.75},"DEL","MOVE","LINE\nADJ","SPELL"],
["", "", {x:0.5},"°\n±","!\n1","@\n2","#\n3","$\n4","%\n5","¢\n6","&\n7","*\n8","(\n9",")\n0","_\n-","+\n=",{w:1.75},"BKSP",{x:0.25},{w:0.75},"INDEX",{x:0.5},"CHG\nFMT","GET","PAGE\nEND",""],
["", "", {x:0.5},{w:1.5},"Tab","Q","W","E","R","T","Y","U","I","O","P","1/4\n1/2","[\n]",{x:0.25,w:1,h:2,w2:1.25,h2:1,x2:-0.25,y2:0},"RET"],
["REQST", "PRINT", {x:0.5},{w:1.75},"Lock","A","S","D","F","G","H","J","K","L",":\n;","\"\n'","3\n2",{x:2.5},"↑","↓","FIND",""],
["END", "MSG", {x:0.5},{w:1.25},"Shift","¶\n§","Z","X","C","V","B","N","M",",\n,",".\n.","?\n/",{w:2.5},"Shift",{x:1.5},"←","→","GO TO",""],
[{x:5.5},{w:2},"Code",{w:5.5},"",{w:1.25},"ENTER"]
The permalink doesn't appear to be working, but if you paste that into the "raw code" into the
keyboard-layout-editor, you'll get a standard displaywriter. Please forgive the hack I used to get the "RET" key right, I just messed with it until it worked.
Things to note:
The "LOCK" key to the left of "A" is latching. You press either of the shifts to return it.
