Trying to be minimal in order to reduce constant editing
|

of layer keys, not to mention how ugly having a 60% layout
|
|
|
|
|
|
is when you have mapped keys in the grid.

Put simply, the below line allows for toggling a no-bind
|
|
|
|
|
|
layer for when you may require a standard layout (such as
|
|
|
|
|
|
playing Street Fighter, Counter Strike, etc.) by pressing
|
|
|
|
|
|
both Meta keys at the same time. You can toggle back to the
|
|
|
|
|
|
base layer by holding both Meta keys at the same time, as to allow
|
|
|
|
|
|
for normal functionality when holding either key down for a shortcut.
