NUS (NeoUS Keyboard Layout)
NUS Changes/ToDo (Crossed out equals done)
- Add Left Mod4, necessary since Mod4 enables arrow keys and numpad
Do not allow Mod4+Mod4 toggle since this leads to problemsSwitch \ and / since LMod3+/ is used more often and it would be more convenient to have them closer- Write Windows driver for NUS
- Write driver for Linux console
- \ (RMod3) becomes RMod4
- RCTRL becomes RMod4
- RALT becomes RMod3
- Lock of Mod4 is only LShift+CapsLock+Tab
- Take care / correct ssharp in top row
- Add FN lock
