We have a new draft key set submitted today - Quebec CSA!
Please email or message me if interested in ordering this set. I will be ordering several copies from the factory.
If you have any feedback, please let me know in the next few days so I can update the file if needed before it goes to the factory.
Here are some notes that I was sent:
- This layout works only on Windows and Linux, Apple has developed its own CSA keyboard, called Canadian French ― CSA but it’s not exactly the same keyboard layout. Apple respect only partially this standard (the ligature œ is located with q for example). If you are interested I can send you another template using this layout. For now, I am interested in the Windows/Linux version.
- 4¤ and É are drawn twice because the Linux version is different and doesn’t use the € sign.
- I am interested in the F77 industrial grey with the Numpad #3 (with an arrow inside a diamond for the Enter key used in the Numpad).
- I am also a VIM user and I would like if possible a second Caps Lock key with the proper Esc pictogram, not ESC or Esc but an arrow inside a circle, it’s there in my template.
Ideas (relocate ESC key):
1) Home Row (where caps lock is, then relocate caps lock between
ctrl and alt)
2) Between ctrl and alt
Other points :
In the newest version, the ligature Πmust be printed (E key).
Also, the pictograms must be used instead of english or french labels,
same thing over the numpad.
The triangle replace the decimal separator (numpad).
- Return and Enter are pretty similar but are not exactly the same.
Enter (arrow inside a diamond) go with the numpad). Return (just the arrow pointing left) to with the alphanumeric keys.
- The pictogram "centering" with the 5 key (numpad) is now obsolete and can be skipped.
