Tiny Keyboards Layout

I was a huge fan of #Miryoku. It feels so ergonomic and logical that I “mastered” it in a matter of minutes.

But Miryoku has a fatal flaw. Using Modifier + Letter/Number + Nav button is impossible without very custom mappings.

I am trialling a slightly modified RSTA layout on a 3w6 #ergokeyboard starting. It does everything but feels less ergonomic.

Pros:

• No home-row mods;
  • fewer misfires.
• So far every combination is reachable.

Cons:

• No Home Row Mods;
  • once you master Home Row Mods and learn to respect the delay, they become like pure magic, and you wonder how you could have lived without them.
• Position of Ctrl, Enter and Backspace makes it a pinky heavy layout
  • this I will have to tweak as an appeal of smaller ergonomic keyboards is focus on thumbs, rather than on the pinky.

The ergo-journey continues.

Nouvelle étape de apprentissage du split keyboard avec @ergol :

- j'explore l'approche #miryoku avec #arsenik et #kanata pour apprendre les autres touches que les lettres https://ergol.org/claviers/arsenik/
- j'ai commencé à reprendre la main sur la config du firmware qmk en modifiant les layers (inspirés de arsenik) ... mais j'ai une vielle version https://github.com/arthurzenika/qmk_firmware/tree/lily58-splitkb/keyboards/lily58/keymaps/default difficile à compiler car avec des "vielles" version de qmk et la nouvelle https://github.com/arthurzenika/qmk_firmware/tree/lily58-arsenik/keyboards/lily58/keymaps/default y a plus les RGB

I really appreciate systematic asymmetry of #miryoku layout. It makes typing on small split much easier.

Aucun standard, clairement. Juste des configurations diverses, certaines plus répandues que d’autres. Les deux plus connues sont probablement #Miryoku [1] et #Callum [2].

[2] https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/user-keymaps-still-present/users/callum/readme.md

La spécificité d’#Arsenik c’est l’apprentissage pas-à-pas. La compatibilité avec les claviers standard et la belle place donnée à AltGr sont des bonus.

En s’inspirant de ces trois-là tu ne pourras pas vraiment te tromper. 🙂

Recently removed 10 switches from each side of my Lily58 pro split #ergo #keyboard to mimic the keyboard layout of my next go to keyboard named #totem by GEIGEIGEIST.

While doing so I also programmed the firmware to use my own variant of the #qmk #miryoku layout.

I can herby confirm that using 38 keys is a totally valid option and might even help being faster and more productive.

Взяв собі сьогодні таку пепяку погратися. Давно хотів спробувати роздільну клавіатуру, а тут, ще посадка, як у вертикальних мишках, плюс, свого роду акорди.

@oneeyedman

La idea (o ideas) tras el layout con choricientas capas de #miryoku es brillante.

- home row modifiers
- cambios de capa en los pulgares
- cursores en homerow (con modificador)
- y otras cosas guachis que el autor describe mejor que yo

[sigue]

@oneeyedman y como esto se podía configurar con #qmk, seguí investigando.

Y di con #miryoku

(No asustarse, tiene versión #qwerty

Finally finished my #klor build and also a keymap using home row mods (based on #miryoku layout)

The foam rubber base was still missing... #keyboard #ergo #split #revxlp #miryoku

Baam. My new #revxlp #keyboard. It really is all the learnings about my personal typing preferences and hardware prefs in the latest board. This will be my daily #keyboard for the next weeks, months, who knows.

@petejohanson @manna_harbour #miryoku

It works - it's awesome. Finally a keyboard that totally fits what I was looking for. @petejohanson @manna_harbour #revxlp #miryoku

It's a dream come true this #keyboard.

Great progress on #revxlp 10u now that batteries arrives. This time, even with pogo pins...

Hardware assembly almost done. Just got some software issues now - like always I try to get #miryoku on and did build the uf2 file already, copied over. Now a few keys seem to work but emitting very unexpected (not my miryoku colemak mod dh) keys... Do we need a special miryoku build?

I won a split #MechanicalKeyboard, a #Lily58 Pro. I'm only using a 5×3 subset of each 6×4 half to see if I can. Adapted from the #Miryoku layout: hold down a thumb (and needed home-row mod keys) on one side, type a key on the other. Green Symbols, red Numbers (and Pairs), blue Cursors, yellow Function (plus Media¹ and more symbols), with a White base.

Colored diamonds on Menu key are layer locks². Dash of Green: Column TGB is EmDash, FigureDash, EnDash. Volume key is actually a knob. Green thumb numbers are superscripts.³ I've tried to make key placement logical to help memory. Lots of unassigned slots (rounded corners).

I have a vertical version of the layout as wallpaper on my portrait-mode monitor, and have defined Super+A as a second hotkey to Show Desktop: Pinkie+Pinkie. You would not believe the hours I've stared at it thinking of new ideas or better arrangements.

I hope to actually get the #layout on the #keyboard one day, if I learn the intricacies of the #Configurator and if #QMK flashing works for me. At the moment the former is a minor problem, the latter a bigger one.

[1] Prev|Next icons should be single triangles pointing to a line, but all #KeyboardLayoutEditor offers is doubles arrows doing so, so I'm experimenting with alternatives.

[2] Red Numbers may be the only layer it would make sense to lock, but I put them all in. No NumLock, and CapsLock has been seconded to Compose (⚘), with its toggle function set to Shift+Shift in #LinuxMint.

[3] I clearly use them, and symbols like bullet and starburst. When I used Windows, I had many simple character macros in #TSE (The Semware Editor) to enter them, like Alt+Shift+Period to produce a bullet. Kate doesn't do such, so I had to resort to learning Compose sequences (• is Compose . =). I can now fix that at the #keyboard #layout level.

I’ve been tinkering with my keyboard firmware. I started with #miryoku and added a few layers to be able use it to play video games. I also enabled the oled screens and the leds #SplitKeyboard #corne #crkbd #qmk #ErgonomicKeyboard https://github.com/benoitlouy/qmk_firmware/blob/miryoku-merge-master-20230607/users/manna-harbour_miryoku/custom_config.h

I have changed my keyboard layout to move my delete key off of the outside row of the keyboard and only have it on my thumb cluster. Interestingly it has increased my adoption of homerow mods more generally and I find that I've stopped using my outside of pinky shift key as well. Which I think is probably a good thing from an efficiency standpoint.

#Miryoku #ergodox

@brab @breizh @MrMagne Tu n’es pas le premier à me le demander. Je tâche de faire une vue compréhensible dans la semaine… voire de la mettre quelque part sur le site #QwertyLafayette.

Mais en gros, c’est inspiré de #Miryoku :
• backspace / entrée sous le pouce gauche (tap)
• espace / tab sous le pouce droit (tap)
• layers AltGr, Shift, « num » et « nav » sous les pouces (hold)
• homerow mods pour ctrl / alt / super

Keymap update! Adjusted mousekeys: now using constant speed, and acceleration keys are easier to reach. Embraced one-handed layouts for playing games, including a qwerty layout for games that don't allow remapping keys (such as #timberborn). And finally, merged in main branch from the upstream QMK repo.

Almost done with my skeletyl. Added the connection and got keycaps - kmk configured and works with #miryoku #kmk.

#piantor now works with #kmk #miryoku -;) with the help of manna harbour from Miryoku and Leo from #beekeeb - what a great community.
