Michael Stapelbergs keymap for the Kinesis Advantage

I adjust the thumb block mapping slightly to have a standard set of modifiers (Control, Alt, GUI/Windows, Right Alt) and Escape available conveniently.

Specifically, my keymap makes the following changes:

  • Left thumb block:
    • Swap Delete with Escape (top left), from my Vim days :)
    • The Home key on the left thumb block is replaced by Left GUI/Windows.
  • Right thumb block:
    • The top left key on the right thumb block produces Right Alt.

Corresponding Kinesis configuration

My keymap corresponds to the following Kinesis configuration tool settings:

[escape]>[delete]
[rwin]>[ralt]
[delete]>[escape]
[home]>[lwin]
[intl-\]>[kp-insert]

Note: the last line makes the international key (labeled |, \ and Insert) produce Insert, which is default with QMK, but not default Kinesis.
