# a layout for the Mitosis
- Emphasis on momentary modifiers, all usable from either hand, arranged
- symmetrically, but distinguishable left/right by the OS. Shift, Fn1
- ("Lower"), Fn2 ("Raise"), Super ("Windows"), Meta ("Alt"), Hyper.

-- Fn1 and Fn2 are used to momentary-enable (like a shift key) one of three layers:
+- Red and Blue are used to momentary-enable (like a shift key) one of three layers:
- - Fn1 (Red): Symbols layer
- - Fn2 (Blue): Numbers layer
- - Both: Functions layer
+ - Red: Symbols layer
+ - Blue: Numbers layer
+ - "Purple" (both Red and Blue): Functions layer
-- The base layer is a slight variant of [Workman][]. QWERTY may be toggled-on.
+- The base layer is QWERTY. A slight variant of [Workman][] may be toggled-on.
+
+- Emphasis on minimizing hand travel, so as not to lose orientation with
+ homerow.
- Paired programming symbols (braces, brackets, parentheses) are arranged
- symmetrically in the symbols layer. `?` and `!` are moved to take the place
- of `<` and `>`.
+ symmetrically in the symbols layer.
+
+- `?` and `!` are moved to take the place of `<` and `>`. Rationale: unmodded
+ and shifted keys should be for prose, while symbols useful for programming
+ should be colocated on their own layer.
- No OS keymap modification required.
- Remove the lines in `rules.mk` mentioning `F_CPU` and `F_USB`.
- Remove the lines in `config.h` mentioning `SERIAL_UART_BAUD`.
-- I'm learning a new key placement, so might as well go all out and use an
- optimal non-QWERTY layout.
+- Workman layout
-- I like the way Workman feels and some of its advantages over Colemak.
- Unfortunately, it was designed using a weighting system based on a standard
- column-staggered keyboard so is probably not as optimal as one could achieve
- on an ergonomic board like the Mitosis.

- Arrows in the home position (on a layer). Mod+Arrows = PgUp/PgDn/Home/End,
which is intuitive for me
+- I use tab all the time for autocompletion. To allow it to live on the base
+ layer it is now Mod-Tapped with left shift.
+
### Abandoned ideas
- ~~"Since QWERTY and Workman keep angle brackets together, place other
activates a symbols layer where all brackets are easily accessible.
- Space/Enter to the left of layer select for Enter doesn't work well; I always
- trigger space first.
+ trigger space first when mashing the keys simultaneously. This might not
+ continue to be true if I change the angle at which I strike the keys e.g.
+ with a neoprene base or a wrist support.
-- I used to have Blue layer on ring finger, but that was too hard to use in
+- I used to have Blue on ring finger, but that was too hard to use in
conjunction with shift.
## To do
+- Figure out where to place non-numpad numbers so we don't need num lock turned
+ on to type them?
- Improve LED indications (may require modding bluetooth firmware):
- Is any board nonresponsive (which one?)
- Does either board have a low battery?
- Add Insert, PrintScr, Pause/Break
-- Make QWERTY base layer for people who customize layout in software? Store
- default base layer in eeprom?
-- See if the henkans placement is at all useful for Japanese speakers, or abuse
- different keysyms
-- Mod a speaker onto my receiver and enable tones
+- ~~Make QWERTY base layer for people who customize layout in software?~~ I
+ default to QWERTY now.
+- Store default base layer in eeprom?
+- See if the henkan/muhenkan placement is at all useful for Japanese speakers,
+ or abuse different keysyms for Left/Right Hyper. (Original space cadet used
+ scancodes 145/175. 145 is LANG2, 175 is "reserved" in USB HID spec.)
+- Mod a buzzer onto my receiver and enable tones
- Implement "layer lock" key
- Improve tri-layer behavior
