This layout is for the Wuque ikki68 Aurora and is primarily meant for Windows.
The keymap is similar to the default keymap for the Aurora, but it overloads the left alt key to behave like an additional 'Fn' key while keeping the standard functionality of the alt key intact.
LeftAlt + 1...N -> F1...FN
LeftAlt + L/R Arrows -> Home/End
LeftAlt + Home -> End
LeftAlt + Backspace -> Delete
LeftAlt + Esc -> Backtick (`)
LeftAlt + Shift + Esc -> Tilde (~)
LeftAlt + LeftShift + 4 -> Alt+F4
The novel part of this keymap is that it preserves the default functionality of the left alt key, so 'alt + tab', 'ctrl + alt + del', 'alt + f4'
, etc. all work as expected without having to use timers.
Everything also works with other modifier keys, so 'alt + L/R' and 'alt + shift + L/R'
work great for text manipulation to select lines.
This super alt keymap will feel very familiar for anyone coming from macOS since the Windows alt key is in the same position as CMD on macOS keyboards.
And finally, the original alt key functionality can be toggled at any time by pressing 'Fn + period'
so for example if a game requires use of the left alt, you can easily turn it off.
You can also cycle though multiple LED modes (underglow, logo, all, none) by pressing 'Fn + x'
(the default ikki68 Aurora keymap only supports all or none). The last value set is persisted in EEPROM.
