Cranium's Preonic layout
This layout is based on the Preonic default with some changes I find interesting to share.
Default layer

- As a Colemak user, Capslock was rebound to Backspace.
- Escape was moved to the top-right of the keyboard
- Enter was moved to the bottom-right of the keyboard. It's now easy to hit and can even be activated with the palm.
- An F12 was put next to the left CTRL => it's the shortcut I use to toggle the Guake terminal.
- I don't really use the key below my Escape (top-right, 2nd row), so I'll consider any ideas for the moment.
Lower

- Perhaps one of the most interesting change: the arrow keys were moved to the right-hand home row, activated with the Raise layer. It means I can use the arrow keys without moving my hand from the home row, by activating the Raise layer with my thumb. It took a while to adapt but it was totally worth it. To note, I also put Home/End on the same layer but one row below, with I also find really useful.
Adjust

- The "arrow" keys act as Vol+/Vol-/Previous/Next on the Adjust layer (which is quite a natural mapping for these media keys).
