Hold down F or J for F Lock, D or K for Ctrl and so on. My fingers adjusted to it really fast. Your keys can act as modifiers when held, and normal keys when pressed and it is works super well.

- 0xdba 5y agoI have my ergodox ez setup like this. asdf and jkl; all have dual functions when held a/j = ctrl ; = alt a turns ijkl into arrow keys (like wsad, but I have a left handed mouse) k + j = copy, k + l = paste and so on for symbols, brackets, etc. The goal is to move from the home row as little as possible. I attempted to gather statistics on most used keys when programming at work, which was mildly successful. Here's my layout, optimized for left handed mouse use: https://configure.zsa.io/ergodox-ez/layouts/JwoW9/latest/0 https://configure.zsa.io/ergodox-ez/layouts/JwoW9/latest/0
- agbell 5y agoThat is great! I think there is a lot of room for innovation with dual use keys like this.
