The qwerty inward keymap for snappy

This layout is a plain QWERTY layout, but in contrast to the regular QWERTY layout shifted to the center, i.e., the inner keys on the home row are G and H. Reason is the compatibilty with OS-level layouts that require two extra columns for the pinky (little finger). This includes NEO layouts, like NEO Bone.

The "special" layer has following features:

  • arrow keys on the left hand (on E,S,D,F not W,A,S,D)
    • if you need plain arrow keys
  • arrow keys + CTRL + ALT on the right hand (on I, J, K, L)
    • for example virtual screen switch on KDE Plasma
  • media keys
    • volume down, up and mute (on N, M, ,)
    • pause, previous, next (on C, V, B)
