Nice looking keys.  There was a run of doubleshot white on green Vim keys that boilermaker over at techkeys had done a while ago.  Something for you to hunt for in the future!

That would be TECO (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TECO_(text_editor)). Vim (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vim_(text_editor)) is for Quiche-eaters. ;P

TECO - the line noise editor ;)

I vaguely recall someone recommending it to me a few years ago.  I looked at it, but didn't have the time to pursue it then.

Initial release 1962/1963?  No wonder computers had a bad name back then - just imagine what Twitter or Facebook would be like it you had to compose messages using TECO commands :))

We've had to ability to do full color prints since around December 2014. It's available for individual keys and for full keycap sets.

This set looks pretty excellent shawndumas! When we took a tour of WASD at the recent Kiibohd meetup we got to see their UV coating apparatus and I picked up one of the Axiom keyboards. The advice I got from them was that the coating should protect the key for quite a long time but if something scratches the coating it will begin to flake off. In other words don't drop tools or type with your nails and they should last and look lovely for a good long while.
