I need your help.\nJust [send me an E-Mail](mailto:paul@vorb.de) if want to help me.\n\nAbout\n-----\n\nProgramming in languages like C and Java sucks. At least it does with non\nUS-keyboards. For example on German Qwertz keyboards you have to hold `Alt Gr`\nand hit `7` for a `{`. Since in many programming languages such special\ncharacters are very common, programming can be a tedious work.\n\nThis library tries to improve the situation by using a 3rd modifier key, the\n`Caps Lock`, (others are `Shift` or `Alt Gr`) to allow you to comforably type\ncharacters that are otherwise difficult to reach. Since `Caps Lock` usually is\nmore annoying than helpful (eVERYBODY HITS IT ACCIDENTALY FROM TIME TO TIME),\nthis character can be used for this purpose.\n\nThird draft\n-----------\n\n### Layer 3\n\n    ┌───┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬───────┐\n    │   │ ‚│ ‘│ ’│ ›│ ‹│ »│ «│ „│ “│ ”│ ?│  │Backsp |\n    ├───┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬─────┤\n    │ Tab │ …│ _│ [│ ]│ ^│ !│ \u003c│ \u003e│ =│ \u0026│  │  │ ↲   │\n    ├─────┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┐    │\n    │ M3   │ \\│ /│ (│ )│ *│ ?│ (│ )│ -│ :│ @│M3│    │\n    ├────┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴──┴────┤\n    │ Sh │M4│ #│ $│ |│ ~│ `│ +│ %│ \"│ '│ ;│  Shift  │\n    ├────┼──┼──┼──┴──┴──┴──┴──┴──┴─┬┴──┴┬─┴┬──┬─────┤\n    │Ctrl│ W│Al│                   │ M4 │ W│Cm│Ctrl │\n    └────┴──┴──┴───────────────────┴────┴──┴──┴─────┘\n\n### Layer 4\n\n    ┌───┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬──┬───────┐\n    │   │  │ ²│ ³│  │  │  │ {│ [│ ]│ }│ \\│  │Backsp |\n    ├───┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬┴─┬─────┤\n    │ Tab │  │ ⇍│ ↑│ ⇍│  |  │ 7│ 8│ 9│  │  │  │ ↲   │\n    ├─────┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┐    │\n    │ M3   │ ↤│ ←│ ↓│ →│ ↦│  │ 4│ 5│ 6│  │  │M3│    │\n    ├────┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴┬─┴──┴────┤\n    │ Sh │M4│ €│  │ ↲│  │  │  │ 1│ 2│ 3│  │  Shift  │\n    ├────┼──┼──┼──┴──┴──┴──┴──┴──┴─┬┴──┴┬─┴┬──┬─────┤\n    │Ctrl│ W│Al│         0         │ M4 │ W│Cm│Ctrl │\n    └────┴──┴──┴───────────────────┴────┴──┴──┴─────┘\n\n\nTODO\n----\n\nHere’s a tasklist of what has to be done.\n\n1. Windows implementation\n2. Linux implementation\n3. Mac OS X implementation\n\nCredits\n-------\n\nThis project is inspired by the [Neo Layout](http://neo-layout.org/), a project\nthat already has a similar mod3 keyboard layer for programmers, but also changes\nthe first and second layer to a more ergonomic one. Because not everybody has\nthe patience to learn a completely new keyboard layout, I started this\nalternative.\n\nLicense\n-------\n\n(The MIT License)\n\nCopyright © 2012-2013 Paul Vorbach\n\nPermission is hereby granted, free of charge, to any person obtaining a copy of\nthis software and associated documentation files (the “Software”), to deal in\nthe Software without restriction, including without limitation the rights to\nuse, copy, modify, merge, publish, distribute, sublicense, and/or sell copies of\nthe Software, and to permit persons to whom the Software is furnished to do so,\nsubject to the following conditions:\n\nThe above copyright notice and this permission notice shall be included in all\ncopies or substantial portions of the Software.\n\nTHE SOFTWARE IS PROVIDED “AS IS”, WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR\nIMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS\nFOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE AND NONINFRINGEMENT.
