I'm still undecided, the Lenovo X1 Carbon doesn't seem like a bad machine, but I don't want a Windows license
<bobthecow>
the blanks in the top row are brightness, expose and launchpad
<gregkare>
Cool, are you using one of those DIY keyboards?
<bobthecow>
i'm using the truly ergonomic.
<ddfreyne>
I like having `~ next to my shit key.
<ddfreyne>
Err, shift.
<bobthecow>
ddfreyne: where's that key? ;)
<ddfreyne>
I found it on the toilet
<gregkare>
Between shift and z
<bobthecow>
i think my favorite thing about my current keyboard layout is the fn layer: http://i.0x7f.us/fnlayout.png
<ddfreyne>
bobthecow: Weird position of shift. I like my control key to be in that position (otherwise using vim is a huge pain int he ass)
<ddfreyne>
bobthecow: Wait, what’s the K stuff?
<bobthecow>
it is a weird position for shift, but it is surprisingly awesome (for everything besides vim)
<gregkare>
I think I would extremely hate the position of your control key
<gregkare>
I can't live without mapping caps lock to ctrl
<bobthecow>
if i used vim regularly i would move ctrl to the left space.
<bobthecow>
as it is, i have fn on the left space so i can easily switch to the fn layer.
<bobthecow>
ddfreyne: K are keypad keys.
<bobthecow>
K= is the = on the tenkey.
<ddfreyne>
bobthecow: How easy is it to use somebody else's keyboard for a minute? ;)
<bobthecow>
it's actually not bad at all.
<bobthecow>
caps lock and return used to get me every time i did that.
<gregkare>
Muscle memory is weird, I can switch pretty fast to a French (azerty) keyboard
<bobthecow>
but the keyboard is just enough different that it switches modes for me.
<bobthecow>
if i had an identical physical keyboard with an alt layout it would be a lot harder.
<ddfreyne>
gregkare: I used to use azerty for a long time (because it is the default in Belgium)
<gregkare>
Two years ago I only used azerty at work (before I brought my own US Model M) on a desktop machine, so my brain assumed every time I'm on something that's not my laptop I should type with an azerty layout
<bobthecow>
the other layout on my keyboard is num lock, but i got an external tenkey and almost never use the num lock layer anymore: http://i.0x7f.us/nllayout.png
<bobthecow>
gregkare: the hardware shift actually makes it surprisingly easy...
<bobthecow>
i've got a standard mac layout on my lappy, and i can switch back and forth to that without even slowing down.
<gregkare>
Nice
<gregkare>
I've noticed I find it hard to touch-type when I'm using a friend's 13" Air or MacBook Pro, it's too similar but not exactly the same as my 11" Air...
<bobthecow>
ddfreyne: you should use your sweet new data source to import CONTRIBUTING.md for the development page on nanoc.ws
<ddfreyne>
bobthecow: Oh, good idea
<ddfreyne>
I also clarified the "sudo gem" thing on the Install guide:
<bobthecow>
gregkare: yeah, you can either source the file, put it in bash_completion.d (where it's automatically sourced) or add `complete -C` your .bashrc or something to manually tell bash about it.
<bobthecow>
also, they wrote their completer in ruby. that makes things so much happier than bash/zsh scripting.
<bobthecow>
:)
<gregkare>
Night ddfreyne!
<gregkare>
Oh one hand I'd rather write it in Ruby with just the stdlib even if we generate it, and on the other hand I want to get better at bash, heh
<gregkare>
s/Oh/On/
<bobthecow>
gregkare: if you're careful about the output, you could write it in ruby and reuse everything to do completion for bash, zsh and fish.
<gregkare>
Great idea
