Documentation - UltimateKEYS Keyboard Layout (Windows)

This project is based on US-QWERTY and is forked from the EurKEY Keyboard Layout.

In UltimateKEYS, all keys are exactly organized as US-QWERTY. When AltGr or AltGr+Shift is pressed in combination with another key, other diacritics and symbols are accessible and some keys become dead keys.

In that way, it is - somehow - similar to the layout "United States-International" (on Windows), although this project moves all dead key combinations to the modifiers AltGr and AltGr+Shift. That way, this project solves the most typical caveats, among which the quotes (' and ") can be used as usual (without pressing the spacebar afterwards), while the acute accent (´) and diaeresis (¨) are found under Alt and Alt+Shift respectively.
