Pick Your Poison
- ANSI variants assume all symbols in your keyboard layout are in their
QWERTY-ANSI positions: works fine with most US layouts but Dvorak users will get
a slightly different Prog layer.
- AltGr variants use your layout’s AltGr layer instead of the Prog
layer: perfect for layouts that already have an optimized AltGr layer, such as
QWERTY-Lafayette and Ergo-L.
- “Easy” variants don’t use any homerow-mods and leave the left thumb key
modifier unchanged — but they still use a Prog layer and put the
Backspace and Return keys under the thumbs. A good
starting point if you’re new to dual keys.
Note that kanata can also use the laptop’s trackpoint buttons (e.g. ThinkPad)
as two additional thumb keys. :-)
