Support for Alternative Layouts
This is a summary of how alternative layouts have been supported by kits such as Colevrak and Homing. It is not a discussion of alt layout performance and development, but if that interests you I highly recommend starting with Pascal Getreuer’s A guide to alt keyboard layouts (why, how, which one?). It’s a concise and comprehensive overview with links to some great sites that go deeper. He also has a separate Links about keyboards page. The Keyboard layouts doc he recommends explains layout goals and metrics in detail, summarizing the alt layouts discussed here as well as more than one hundred others. Sculpted-profile The majority of custom keycap sets are sculpted-profile (Cherry, SA, MT3, KAT, etc. - more on profiles generally here) so let’s start there.

So I totally missed the drop because the insufficient payment notification which went straight to my junk mail so I wasn't able to pay for my K-Type in time.
I have been waiting for about a year to receive this keyboard and need it for research purposes since I am a Computer Science Student doing research in human-computer interaction and was hoping to receive this keyboard by December since my paper is due before Christmas. The K-Type is perfect because it provides multiple programmable function layers as well as lights (this could help with conditions such as dyslexia and other disorders)
I'm looking for the K-Type with Halo True Switches just so you guys know.
I know this is a long shot, but I was wondering if anybody was willing to sell their K-Type to me for a higher price or do a trade of one of the keyboards/computer stuff I have:
1.) DAS Keyboard 4 - Cherry MX Brown 2.) WASD Code Full Size - Cherry MX Clear 3.) Happy Hacking Professional 2 type S - Topre 45 gram 4.) Realforce 87U - Topre 55 gram 5.) Filco Majestouch Minila - Cherry MX Brown
Every keyboard comes with a Chiton case and a wrist rest except for the DAS Keyboard 4
If any of you are able to help me out with this (you don't like the keyboard) PLEASE LET ME KNOW, I would really appreciate it since I don't think I can wait any longer!
Thanks!
