@mehluv @viz @samebchase and all other #Emacs users…

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND using #kmonad to configure Space to act as Ctrl when held. I’ve been using it for almost 5 years now, it’s great both in Emacs and outside it.

Also, consider using a modal package like #Evil or #Meow.

Keyboard machinations with Kmonad

@fabi1cazenave Après plus d'un an avec le shift en home row mod sur un #sweep et le laptop, je ne rencontre pas vraiment de problème, ou je ne m'en rends pas compte. Je vais expérimenter de mettre le shift sur le pouce gauche. Et se pose la question de transposer cette habitude sur un clavier classique de portable quand le split n'est pas là (avec #kmonad que j'utilise aussi). Expérimentons...

I ❤ shortcuts: Home Row Mods.

How I set up some nice #keybindings using #kanata a tool similar to #Kmonad.

I ❤️ shortcuts #7 : Home Row Mods

@crwx Not in my code, but in other programs that don't have my beautiful #emacs bindings.

But I'm about to switch to a keyboard with #qmk firmware (#bastardkeyboard #charybdis ) and use #kmonad for a similar setup with other (laptop) keyboards, so I hope to use my bindings *everywhere* soon.

Hello la communauté #ergol. Sur une Ubuntu 22.04, j’ai mis la disposition Ergo-l, dans Gnome, en première. La touche morte fonctionne, sauf pour les touches de repos. Subtilité, je suis utilisateur de #kmonad pour implémenter le home row mod (https://www.drakoland.fr/home-row-mod/ in English).
Quelqu’un a-t-il déjà rencontré cette problématique ?

Finally, I took the time to debug my #kmonad problems and also wrote a post about my findings. If you're interested in #mechanical_keyboard, #hotplug, #homerowmods, #systemd and #udev, read on: https://www.drakoland.fr/home-row-mod/

Great day!
Spent literally 11 hours intensely NOT getting #KMonad to work on my #Mac. 😓

This is as far as I got. 👇🏻

(Or, previously I got one step further, and got «Encountered error in KeySource: [Cannot translate from mac keycode: (0,0)]» instead)

#keyboard #kmonad

I have a keyboard like the picture below.

I am looking for a KMonad config for this type of keyboard.

Does anybody have one or know of where I can get one?

Something like a Colemak or Dvorak mod using a wide base (like making the left side on the left-edge and re-purposing the numpad for alphabet keys on the right-edge)

Okay, it's not that old yet, but https://github.com/kmonad/kmonad is the best tool I've come across this year.

With #KMonad you can map any key on your keyboard to any other key, key sequence or even command. It's also super easy to define and use multiple keyboard layouts, and you can jump back and forth between them.

An extremely useful tool 😍
