 # UltimateKEYS Keyboard Layout (Windows)
-This project is based on US-QWERTY and is forked from the EurKEY Keyboard Layout.
+International US QWERTY layout with AltGr dead keys via AutoHotkey script and MSKLC source.
 
-## Download the latest version
+In UltimateKEYS, all keys remain exactly organized as US QWERTY. 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.

-## Installation Instructions
-
-### Important - Please note :
-
-- **The current version(s) should be sufficiently stable and reliable for everyday use, but are _NOT_ certified for mission-critical systems !**
+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).
 
-### Uninstalling a previous version :
+## Script for AutoHotkey
 
-In case you have already installed a previous version of UltimateKEYS, uninstall it beforehand :
+This AutoHotkey script is a highly customizable version of UltimateKEYS. To work properly, the Windows keyboard has to be set to standard US QWERTY and at least AutoHotkey v1.1 (preferably as 'Unicode 64-bit', on 32-bit Windows as 'Unicode 32-bit') is required.
 
-1. Remove it from the 'language bar'.
-2. Uninstall it via 'Control Panel' -> 'Programs and Features'.
-3. Restart your computer.
+- **AutoHotkey website :  https://www.autohotkey.com/**

+- **Download the 'UltimateKEYS - YYYY-MM-DD.ahk' file from this repository.**
+- **Optionally, you can put the AHK file in the 'Startup' folder to launch at startup.**
+- **Please note :  this is an overlay script, specifically designed for the keyboard layout 'US QWERTY'.**
