Except, when AltGr or AltGr+Shift is pressed in combination with another key, other diacritics and symbols are accessible and some keys become dead keys. +International US QWERTY layout with AltGr (Right Alt) dead keys via AutoHotkey (Win), MSKLC (Win), XKB (Linux) and Xmodmap (Linux). This layout has borrowed some aspects from EurKEY (by Steffen Brüntjen). -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. This project has borrowed several aspects from the EurKEY Keyboard Layout. +**Official release :** [![GitHub Release](https://img.shields.io/github/release/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS.svg)](https://github.com/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS/releases) +**Testing release :** [![GitHub Testing](https://img.shields.io/github/release/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS-testing.svg?label=testing)](https://github.com/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS-testing/releases) +**Legacy release :** [![GitHub Legacy](https://img.shields.io/github/release/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS-legacy.svg?label=legacy)](https://github.com/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS-legacy/releases) -## Script for AutoHotkey +## Important - Security Warning : -This AutoHotkey script is a highly customizable version of UltimateKEYS.
