Olivier Poitrey 6bf2c07715 Keymap: dz60/macos_arrow: rev3 (#3909)
* Arrow keys are now arranged on hjkl (vi style)
* The escape key is moved on capslock, shared with func layer switch
* The grave key is now dedicated (not shared with escape)
* Add a new numpad layer that can be activated with the spacebar
* Fix layout mismatch between layers

Macos keymap with arrow

This is a keymap for DZ60 configured with arrows using the layout below:

My build used the following components:

Base Layer

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------'
  • The escape key is moved to the capslock to get keep grave letter pristine.
  • The Caps-Lock (Hyper) key switch to the function layer (_FL) or escape when used alone.
  • The right Cmd key is used to switch to the media layer (_ML) when used with keys mapped on that layer.
  • The space key can be used to switch to the numpad layer (_NL) when used with one of the mapped key on that layer.

Function Layer (_FL)

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

The function layer is activated by the Caps-Lock (Hyper) key to access F keys. In addition, the HJKL are mapped as cursor keys on that layer.

Media Layer (_ML)

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

The media layer is activated by the right Cmd (FN) key. It contains the typical macos media keys on the top row. Blank keys act as Cmd+ that key on the base layer.

Numpad Layer (_NL)

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------.

`-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

The numpad layer is activated by the space bar, when hold.
