Belak's Ergodox Layout

This has been based off of emacs_osx_dk from the main qmk repo. However, I've taken some of the ideas for the thumbs from dvorak_emacs and tweaked it a bit based on the keycaps I have.

This keyboard is intended for use in emacs (one of the main reasons for easy access to modifiers) but it could be useful in other instances as well.

The main repo is used as a testbed, so sometimes the layout may be in a strange state. The qmk version should be relatively stable.

Instructions

This is currently being used on a regular ergodox, but it should work fine on the infinity as well. Though, you may have to modify the commands to build and flash the firmware to match the separate halves as defined in the infinity documentation.

If you are using this keymap in the qmk repo, you should be able to just run make ergodox-belak-teensy. If you're using this externally (I sometimes make changes before syncing them to qmk), use the following instructions:

  1. Clone the main qmk repo
  2. Clone this to $QMK/keyboards/ergodox/keymaps/belak-external
  3. Run make ergodox-belak-external-teensy from the root of the qmk repo.
