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 (Windows).

-

In UltimateKEYS, all keys are exactly organized as US-QWERTY. When AltGr or AltGr+Shift is pressed in combination with another key, other diacritics and symbols are accessible and some keys become dead keys.

+

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.

-

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.

Documentation - Keyboard Layout Image, Dead Key Descriptions

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.

 

Script for AutoHotkey
