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. -**https://github.com/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS/raw/master/UltimateKEYS%20-%202019-02-21.zip** +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). +## Script for AutoHotkey -### Have fun and enjoy ! +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. + +- **AutoHotkey website :  https://www.autohotkey.com/** +- **Install the latest release of the current v1.1 branch (preferably as 'Unicode 64-bit', on 32-bit Windows as 'Unicode 32-bit').** +- **Download (and run) 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'.** + +## Download the latest release + +- **https://github.com/pieter-degroote/UltimateKEYS/releases** + +## Documentation - Keyboard Layout Image, Dead Key Descriptions + +- **https://pieter-degroote.github.io/UltimateKEYS/documentation.html** +- **https://pieter-degroote.github.io/UltimateKEYS/** + +## Enjoy and have fun !  -  Veel plezier !  â˜º + +Pieter Degroote
