smt Clueboard Layout (HHKB variant)

Clueboard Layout Image

This is smt's HHKB variant layout, based on the default layout that comes flashed on every Clueboard. The primary differences from the default are:

  • The Backspace key is moved down into the traditional \ position
  • \ and ` are assigned to the "split-backspace" positions
  • The right Shift is split to allow for a Fn key to its right
  • The modifiers on the right side now mirror the left side (Alt/Super/Ctrl)

For the most part, it's a straightforward and easy to follow layout. There are a few special keys:

  • The Esc key sends Esc when tapped, ` when Alt/Super/Ctrl/Fn is held, or ~ when Shift is held
  • The Tab key sends Tab when tapped, or Super+Ctrl+Alt+Shift (a.k.a. Hyper) when held
  • The key traditionally in the Caps-Lock position has been re-mapped to send Esc when tapped, or Ctrl when held
  • The left Shift key sends Enter when tapped, or Shift when held
