OS X’s US keyboard layout modified for a Finnish palate.

Custom US Keyboard Layout

OS X’s US keyboard layout modified to suit my tastes.

What’s different

  • It’s easier to type Ä and Ö. Fellow Finns — you’re welcome.

  • The mappings for curly quotes have been changed so that they make more sense.

  • The ability to type a non-breaking space using ⌥ Space has been removed. Accidentally typing one in your code is amazingly annoying to debug! Now it just types a regular space.
