| 6 | About | ||
| 7 | ------ | ||
| 8 | |||
| 9 | After using the massdrop configurator to get the basics, I wanted to add a | ||
| 10 | little extra to my ergodox. Notably the Hyper hotkey, the press and hold, | ||
| 11 | and a way to have my beloved £ :pound: symbol available<sup>[1](#unicode)</sup>. Why not switch to a GB | ||
| 12 | layout? Well the computers I use are US keymap'd and I can't always change | ||
| 13 | that. Plus I've got used to 2/@ and 3/# and moving to the ergodox was hard | ||
| 14 | enough. :sweat_smile: | ||
| 15 | |||
| 16 | I started from the default and edited from there as I needed. It's somewhat | ||
| 17 | similar to a regular layout, particularly R1 and shift/controls. I ended up | ||
| 18 | with a few keys that were blank, so I'm testing out some shortcuts. Alt+F4 for | ||
| 19 | quitting things in Windows, is one example, but I felt it was better placed on | ||
| 20 | the 1st layer - in case of fat fingers. | ||

| 122 | Usage | ||
| 123 | ------ | ||
| 124 | |||
| 125 | ~L1 / L2 / L3 will momentarily switch to a layer if held and another key is pressed. | ||
| 126 | If pressed and released will remain on layer until pressed again. | ||
| 127 | |||
