I have a feeling Omega is a popular legend, the Greek schoolboy's favourite!

Omega legend reminds me of this lovely album...

I hereby commit $14 to infinity awesomeness!

All these will stay alpha colours? I ask only for ENTER, which could swing either way.

Very nice looking. I'm going for DSA, but am curious about SA, too. The height concerns me a little, since I'm commuting with my 'dox at the moment.

Scary! Mystery of the dead key... Glad to hear it's working again. FWIW, I'd agree re: dirt. That's happened on mine once or twice.

Or the wizard of id...

Cool board! Love to see something from '84 getting the use it deserves.

The sunken foam gives it a very spaced-out look, like each key is an island...

I propose backslash for the extra spot. Do I hear a second?

Agreed; sharp lookin' set.

matt3o, what a travesty that you haven't got yours yet. :S

Indeed, but the sans I and the | are so similar that it might be more confusing than useful. ("Why does your board have two different I's?" "Easy, this one's the tall one!")

Having second thoughts on 1u |. Just noticed: there is already a 1u | key in the common set: the letter "I". (Double-colon sentence; neat!) Edited to add: Lower-case Greek would indeed be awesome. Like the text-glyph equivalent of the Nerdom kit! :grins: I would prioritize τ (tau) b/c tau manifesto .

I notice the intl kit has a 1u \ key, but nowhere is there a 1u | (pipe) key, which seems like a logical extension since the other mono kit has shifted and un-.

...and three more Mono Legends, of course. Join us!

Thanks Mu for stirring my soul with the wonders of internationality, I am always glad to learn more reasons to buy lots of keys!

I am loving the diversity of sets, too. Thanks Matt3o!

Are you intl mono fans getting them as essentially more novelty caps (here's looking at you, Mu), or are there more specific needs? (Sell me on them, I'm getting mono legend for my number row but am wavering when it comes to the intl monos.)

The renders do look pretty sweet: I feel an uptick in purchases coming on...

Just be careful; you might end up buying HONEY/FHAKJSHIGGNEKENDJW! (No, I don't know what that might include...)

Matt3o, just wanted to leave a quick note saying that I am still super-excited for this kit. I think the legends look stellar, the process went smoothly, and I am completely happy with the kits provided. What a rich variety of sets there are! Particular props for including mono-legend; that is what ...

If only we had more choice for key combinations =( What does this mean? More sets? Smaller sets? :? Looks like I'm the only one interested in the Mono Legend International set :cry: If it doesn't make it, do you think it would be possible to add the € keycap to the "normal" Mono Legend set instead?...

I can't even write a syntax highlighter for AutoHotkey as there is no syntax. Funny because it's true! My script: https://github.com/shayneholmes/general-ahk/blob/master/Mine.ahk Things I think are nice about my script: Ctrl+? displays a tooltip with all my shortcuts. (Sometimes I forget them.)

Space invaders! (Retro gamer nerds unite?)

I was looking at my own mockups and noticed that the F keys don't match the other text legends in size. Here's what I mean:
(13pt vs 15pt on my svg) Intentional? Worth fixing? I'm planning on juxtaposing some of these keys, so it would be more obvious.

But no legends! This one floats my boat for that reason.

Gotta match my Ergodoxian set, which only comes in text. :shrug:

The microchip will make the Nerdom set unignorable (un-ungettable?)! Do it! :) I think an 8-pin gives the sense of an IC while also looking snazzy on a square key.

I posted my Ergodox up a ways, but have since done a better job of it:
Just wanted to share, and maybe inspire!

Just chiming in:

I love visual studio or similar for coding at work, but vim is wonderful for the text processing tasks I find myself faced with all the time. Some love for both!

Maybe stripping the number row off entirely would help everyone feel better.

If I use one for caps lock, it'll be more like ouch, OUCH, ouch OUCH, ouch...

1.25u Amiga keys good enough for you? (Soon to be red!)

Oh no, lil' space invaders dude is gone! (No biggie, I just thought he was cute.)
