This is a modified EurKEY-Mac layout, optimized for typesetting and everyday typography needs:
- Replaced the division sign
÷with minus−(U+2212). - Moved the typesetter’s apostrophe
’to the sad apostrophe'key, losing the diaeresis¨dead key. - Replaced
¬with the diaeresis¨dead key. - Moved en dash
–and em—dash to hyphen key (losing access to the©dead key and№). - Removed broken bar
¦and replaced it with the©dead key. - Replaced section sign
§with uppercase eszettẞ(so that it can be accessed with ⌥⇧s). Sorry, lawyers.
I am releasing the T icon under CC0. It seems impossible to make a keyboard layout icon that adapts to dark and light mode automatically, so I made one that works okay for both.
Thanks to Steffen Brüntjen for making EurKEY.
Thanks to Jonas Diemer and Leonardo Brondani Schenkel for the macOS port.
The Keyboard Layout for Europeans, Coders and Translators – Version for Mac OS X.
This is a port of the EurKEY Keyboard layout, which features a QWERTY baseline layout (=good access to braces etc.) with quick access to commonly used accented characters and Umlauts.
Status: The whole layout should be mapped now. Please report if you find any missing characters.
Copy the two files EurKEY-Typography.keylayout and EurKEY-Typography.icns to your library, either system-wide (/Library/Keyboard Layouts) or for your local user (~/Library/Keyboard Layouts). A system-wide installation is preferred though to ensure the layout is available to all applications. (See also this Superuser answer.)
