Introduction
After I moved to Colemak-DH on the split ergonomic keyboard, I had some key combos that annoyed me. Finding inspiration in Ikcelaks’ Magic Sturdy, I made a “Magic” button on my right thumb (and eventually two). I’m still in the process of tweaking them as I use them more, but for now, here’s my current mappings below.
Update
As of 27/03/2024, I removed the Magic key 2 from my keymap as I didn’t use it much, to free it up for some other function (still to be determined!).
06/07/2024: A while ago I changed B to lead to UT and removed the , to _BUT, and I changed L to K (as opposed to Y).
