Keyboard Layout Image

UltimateKEYS - Keyboard Layout Image

=> CP key (blue) :  Compose Key (Multi_key), in combination with AltGr (Right Alt) (only with AutoHotkey and Linux).
=> Note that the ISO key (next to Left Shift) is not present on standard ANSI keyboards.

MSKLC - Keyboard Layout Image

UltimateKEYS - Keyboard Layout Image

=> Without Compose Key, since MSKLC does not support multiple keystrokes as a sequence for a dead key.

AutoHotkey - Caps Lock modifications

These modifications feature a second AltGr (Right Alt) or Backspace key via Caps Lock.
The classic Caps Lock behavior can be triggered (or toggled) by pressing both Shift keys together.
See the folder ahk-capslock-mods for instructions.

UltimateKEYS - Colemak Variant

Colemak variant of UltimateKEYS - This variant uses Colemak as its primary (or base) layout and features UltimateKEYS as its secondary (AltGr) layout.
See the folder colemak (for AutoHotkey v2 and v1.1 on Windows, and XKB/Xmodmap on Linux).
