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) and XKB/Xmodmap + .XCompose (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 issues, 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 (by Steffen Brüntjen). +**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 +## Keyboard Layout Image : -This AutoHotkey script is a highly customizable version of UltimateKEYS.
