Update

I finally came across keyd software which is a better way to do keyboard customization/keyboard mapping. I recommend using this software instead of creating custom keyboard layouts.

Since I don't use custom keyboard layouts anymore, I'm archiving this repository.

custom keyboard layout

preview:

Add this layout to X11/xkb

sudo bash add_layout.sh

Shortcuts:

• altgr + ı ➡️ Up (Up Arrow key)
• altgr + j ➡️ Left (Left Arrow key)
• altgr + k ➡️ Down (Down Arrow key)
• altgr + l ➡️ Right (Right Arrow key)
• altgr + u ➡️ Home
• altgr + o ➡️ End

Location changes:

• ı (i-dotless) ➡️ i

• i ➡️ ı (i-dotless)

• ş (scedilla) Ş (Scedilla) ➡️ , ;

• , ; ➡️ ş (scedilla) Ş (Scedilla)

• Caps Lock ➡️ Backspace, Delete(Shift+CapsLock)

• Extended left shift (use alt + " alt + 1 to type less/greater than signs)
