In UltimateKEYS, all keys remain exactly organized as US QWERTY. Except, when `AltGr` (`Right Alt`) or `AltGr+Shift` (`Right Alt + 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 issues, among which the quotes (' and ") can be used as usual (without pressing the spacebar afterwards), while the acute accent (´) and diaeresis (¨) are found on `AltGr+'` and `AltGr+Shift+"` respectively. This project has borrowed several aspects from the EurKEY Keyboard Layout (by Steffen Brüntjen).

## Difference between Classic and SW (switched) editions
- Download/Unpack the files `ultkeys`, `ultkeys-sw`, `rule.xml` and `rule-sw.xml` from the 'linux-xkb' folder.
- Copy `ultkeys[-sw]` to `/usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols` (root required).
-- Paste the contents of `rule[-sw].xml` to either `/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.xml` or `/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.extras.xml`, this between the tags `<layoutList>` and `</layoutList>` (root required).
+- Paste the contents of `rule[-sw]_xml` to either `/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.xml` or `/usr/share/X11/xkb/rules/evdev.extras.xml`, this between the tags `<layoutList>` and `</layoutList>` (root required).
- Both the Classic (files without '-sw') and SW layouts (files with '-sw') can be installed alongside each other. The user interface will distinguish them as `UltimateKEYS` and `UltimateKEYS SW`.
