ebelIs there any photo(s) of the QWERTY UK keyboard? I'd like to make sure it's exactly what I'd like18:07
mntmnebel: no, i haven’t finalized that layout yet. what is critical for you on UK QWERTY?18:50

ebelmntmn: just that it is an _actual_ UK keyboard layout πŸ˜‰19:20
ebelI recently got a new QWERTZ German laptop, and it had the short enter key & the pipe key was at the other side.19:21
ebel""""regular folks"""" might not care about these special keys, but I'm sure you can understand why pipe `|` is commonly used by me. πŸ™‚19:22
lastebilso you want the ANSI layout, not ISO? and in UK?19:22
lastebilever since moving from the US and having 2 more keys, I just can't understand ANSI...19:23
mntmnall layouts will be ANSI-like at first :319:24
mntmnebel: if you have a few minutes, i'll quickly do a sketch of what i think it'll look like19:24
lastebilmntmn: oh this is the external keyboard?19:24
Jookialastebil: what do you mean 2 more keys?19:26
Jookiahttps://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b2/Physical_keyboard_layouts_comparison_ANSI_ISO_KS_ABNT_JIS.png19:26
mntmnlastebil: sorry, what do you mean? all reforms have an ansi-like keyboard and the external one is the same19:27
mntmnlastebil: but it's not fully ansi19:27
lastebilmntmn: hmm I didn't notice, so we have no key between (en)z(de)y and shift?19:27
mntmnlastebil, ebel: this is the current QWERTY keyboard layout of reform https://source.mntmn.com/MNT/reform/raw/commit/cc4d354ea0ee8c73a65414acb433970c8c498e7e/reform2-keyboard-pcb/lettering/reform2-keyboard-v3-lettering-qwerty.pdf19:28
mntmnlastebil: oh, there is a key there. the layout has features from both ansi and iso, maybe.19:28
lastebilJookia: see the red keys? those 2. the thing above the return is not on most US ANSI models. It is a reversed-L enter shaped key.19:28
mntmnreform, like ANSI, has only 2 keys between L and ENTER (return), but it has the extra key between left shift and Z, like ISO19:29
lastebilmntmn: ok that's what I mean when I talk about the difference between ANSI and ISO.  the key between the shift and z/y, and the key next to the return. I use the key there a LOT (:19:29
lastebilok, I'll adjust.19:30
lastebilthat is where, typically, \| is, but I'll put it somewhere else that is reachable (:19:30
mntmnwe can make a fully ISO keyboard later, but i didn't do it because i opted for a keyboard with no special key shapes19:30
mntmnlastebil: on reform, \| is right above enter19:30
Jookialastebil: my mechanical keyboard has no key left of z, so wide shift, and pipe key between backspace and enter19:31
Jookiathe reform keyboard is reprogrammable, no? you could just make your own keymap19:31
mntmnyes19:31
lastebilyou can make your own keymap with any keyboard (:19:31
mntmnbut this is about the number of keys i think19:31
Jookiatrue, but it's a hassle19:31
mntmnnumber slash locations19:31
lastebilnot compared to not having the key between shift and Z/Y  (:19:31
mntmnsizes etc19:32
mntmnalso the stagger is a bit different in reform, you have to get used to it for a few minutes19:32
mntmni use the one from commodore SX-6419:32
lastebilhmm, did that have ctrl and shiftlock?19:33
mntmn2 and A are vertically aligned, as are W and Z19:33
lastebilthat's closer to my atreus anyway, which is not quite isolinear (:19:33
lastebilanyway. I'll adjust (: the fellow asking the question originally may not, though.19:34
mntmnyeah, so the reform keyboard is in between staggered and ortholinear19:34
mntmn(the default one)19:34
mntmnok. so back to the UK layout, lets see19:34
ebelAlas I've got to go for dinner now, so no time. And yous seem to know more about keyboards that me! πŸ™‚ ANSI, ISO, etc.19:38
mntmnebel: http://dump.mntmn.com/reform2-keyboard-v3-lettering-qwerty-uk-medium.pdf19:41
mntmnah, i was 3 minutes too late19:41
ebelI suppose, someone can manufacture a different keyboard which people could swap out, right? πŸ™‚ Isnt't that the point.19:41
mntmnebel: yes, absolutely. i just uploaded the draft of the UK layout. what do you think?19:42
ebelmntmn: that is very close to what I would like.19:42
ebeland what I mean19:42
mntmn(#~ key label is a bit offset, gonna fix)19:42
mntmnebel: ok cool19:43
ebelA taller Enter key would be nice. # being to the right of ' rather than ] is the only difference19:43
mntmnyeah, that would require a different keycap, so this is something for the future19:45
mntmncurrently the keyboard uses only 1.5u and 1u keycaps19:45
Jookiamntmn: how many keys?19:54
mntmn14*5+1219:56
mntmnso, 8219:56
Jookianice20:27
technomancy2x+ keycaps were a mistake20:28
technomancyeven 1.5x is pushing it IMO =)20:28
