Input symbols

Input symbols (which can be used as key alias) by layer + keys. When press and hold key z to activate the 'symbols' layer:

• ←, →, ↑, ↓, ␣, ⏎, ⌫, ⌦: Paste the symbol.
• ,: Paste ‹ (for "left side" which looks nicer than <).
• .: Paste › (for "right side" which looks nicer than >).
• 4: Paste ⇥
• 5: Paste ⎋
• 6: Paste ⌘
• 7: Paste ⌥
• 8: Paste ⌃
• 9: Paste ⇧
• 0: Paste ⇪

Use any key for the layer, also consider using:

• simlayer('z', 'symbols')
• hyperLayer('z', 'symbols')
• duoLayer('z', 'x', 'symbols')

Example code: ( Open in the online editor → )

let rules = [
  layer('z', 'symbols').manipulators([
    withMapper(['←', '→', '↑', '↓', '␣', '⏎', '⌫', '⌦'])((k) =>
      map(k).toPaste(k),
    ),

    { ',': toPaste('‹'), '.': toPaste('›') },

    withMapper({ 4: '⇥', 5: '⎋', 6: '⌘', 7: '⌥', 8: '⌃', 9: '⇧', 0: '⇪' })(
      (k, v) => map(k).toPaste(v),
    ),
  ]),
