Heh, I guess old habits die hard. I first began using Emacs on a Mac keyboard, so now I am too used to it.

I guess my rant is more of a wish for Framework or some other manufacturer to offer this kind of layout, without needing a software solution like xmodmap. The moment Framework sells keyboards with modifier keys in the "correct" spot is the moment I'm ditching my Macbook.



:-D There was someone working on firmware that could remap keys (let me see if I can find a link... Welp, it looks like it can be remapped bios today

https://community.frame.work/t/framework-and-open-source/107...

and the firmware is open source https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/EmbeddedController)

and https://community.frame.work/t/changed-my-keyboard-layout-in...

I never did find the post I was thinking of (EDIT: Maybe this one: https://community.frame.work/t/a-qmk-configurable-keyboard/2...)


Get a blank keyboard, switch it in the bios, then the key matches perfectly. So minimal even Jony Ive couldn't come up with it. Truly brave.
