Full Keyboard

To do: Figure out how to output the Windows key and that key to the left of Right Control. AutoHotkey calls it the "AppsKey" but the Learn Plover list isn't super clear...

Tab
	12U {^\t^} From the Github, "This translation presses the tab key without any other spacing. It can be undone with the asterisk key."  Hint: Add the asterisk for Shift+Tab. See Windows Control.

Caps Lock
	1KU {#Caps_Lock} I still prefer SPWHR-FRPB for {MODE:CAPS} instead of {#Caps_Lock}, but here you go.

Space
	SP (was: S-P) {#Space} Inserts a space.  SP outputs "SP" in the Magnum dictionary but you can fingerspell two letters, right?

Backspace
	SP* {#BackSpace} Just like hitting Backspace on QWERTY. You'll want to make use of the number bar for the "Repeat previous stroke" stroke.

. Period
	P-P (was: TP-PL) {.} No space before Space after Next word is capitalized

. Period
	TP-PL {^.^}{-|} No space before No space after Next word is capitalized  I don't know why this was the default Plover stroke for a period when P-P is so much easier, but I'm putting it to good use here.

,  Comma
	W-B (was: KW-BG) {,} No space before Space after Next word is not capitalized

, Comma
	#W-B {,}{^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized Number bar acts as glue. I suppose you'd use this one for numbers, but I know Stan has some funky stroke for that.

? Question mark
	H-F {?} No space before Space after Next word is capitalized.  Plover default, and better than the Magnum stroke.

! Exclamation point
	1EUR7G (was: SKHRAPL) {!} No space before Space after Next word is capitalized

@ At sign
	2EUR7G (was: KWRAT) {^@^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized

# Number sign
	3EUR7G (was: HAERB) #{^} Space before No space after Next word is not capitalized

$ Dollar sign
	4EUR7G (was: TK-PL) ${^} Space before No space after Next word is not capitalized

% Percent sign
	5EUR7G (was: SP-PBD) {&%} Space before Space after Next word is not capitalized When used after a number, it is attached properly.

^ Caret
	K3R506 (was: KR-RT) {^}^{^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized

& Ampersand
	K3R507 (was: SP-PBD) & Space before Space after Next word is not capitalized

* Asterisk
	K3R508 (was: STA*R) {^*^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized

= Equals sign
	KPRAOT {^=^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized Of the two keys that you hit with your pinky finger on QWERTY, I'm giving this pinky stroke to the equals sign. The hyphen is more common and is given an easier, one-handed stroke.

+ Plus sign
	K3R509 {^+^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized The number bar acts as the Shift key on QWERTY.

/ Slash
	KPRAOZ (was: OEU) {^/^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized

\ Backslash
	KPRAOD (was: SPWHRAERB) {^\^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized This puts the Backslash on top of Slash, just like QWERTY.

| Vertical bar
	K3R50D (was: PAO*EUP) {^|^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized The number bar acts as the Shift key on QWERTY.

` Grave accent
	SAEURPG (was: KH-FG) ` Space before Space after Next word is not capitalized

~ Tilde
	15EUR7G (was: T*LD) {^~} No space before Space after Next word is not capitalized The number bar acts as the Shift key on QWERTY (just like ! to *).

<  Less than sign
	KPRAOB (was: AEPBGT) {^<^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized The right hand feels like it's hitting the same key on QWERTY.

> Greater than sign
	KPRAOG (was: A*EPBGT) {^>^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized The right hand feels like it's hitting the same key on QWERTY.

( Open parentheses
	KPRAOP (was: PREPB) {~|(^} Space before No space after Carry capitalization The right hand feels like it's hitting the same key on QWERTY. (At least for me!)

) Close parentheses
	KPRAOL (was: PR*EPB) {^~|)} No space before Space after Carry capitalization The right hand feels like it's hitting the same key on QWERTY. (At least for me!)

[ Open bracket
	KPRAOPB (was: PWR-BGT) {~|[^} Space before No space after Carry capitalization The "left" bracket is still on the left in this series.

] Close bracket
	KPRAOLG (was: PWR*BGT) {^~|]}{>} No space before Space after Next word is not capitalized The "right" bracket is still on the right in this series. I'm adding the {>} to lowercase the next word just because of my work.

{ Open curly bracket
	K3R507B (was: TPR-BGT) \{{^} Space before No space after Next word is not capitalized The "left" curly bracket is still on the left in this series, and the number bar acts as the Shift key on QWERTY.

} Close curly bracket
	K3R508G (was: TPR*BGT) {^~|\}} No space before Space after Carry capitalization The "right" curly bracket is still on the right in this series, and the number bar acts as the Shift key on QWERTY.

- Hyphen-minus
	EGS (was: H-PB) {^-^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized No pattern or symmetry here; it's just an easy stroke, because it's so common.

_ Underscore
	#EGS {^_^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized The number bar acts as the Shift key on QWERTY.

-- Em dash
	#*EGS (was: TK-RB) -- Space before Space after Next word is not capitalized Basically two hyphens with spaces (which will convert in Word unless you disable). I don't really use it, though, so it gets the "hardest" version of the stroke, having both the number bar and the asterisk. Here's a nice page on its usage.

; Semicolon
	KPRAOFR (was: SKWR*RBGS) {;} No space before Space after Next word is not capitalized

: Colon
	KPRAO*F (was: STPH-FPLT) {:}{-|} No space before Space after Next word is capitalized This is an exception to the "number bar means Shift" rule, but that's because uppercase and lowercase follow colons equally, and I wanted the strokes to make sense. See below.

: Colon
	KPRAO*R {^:} No space before Space after Next word is not capitalized Get it? The *R is below *F, so lowercase.

: Colon
	K3R50*6R (was: KHR-PB) {^:^} No space before No space after Next word is not capitalized Used to write clock times and... that's it, I guess. At least it's consistent with the other colon strokes and the "number bar means Shift" rule.

' Open single quote
	KPRAOF {~|'^} Space before No space after Carry capitalization Write things like '70.

' Close single quote
	KPRAOR {^~|'}{>} No space before Space after Next word is not capitalized Add an apostrophe at the end, like Chris'.

" Open double quote, carry capitalization
	KPRAOFP {~|"^} Space before No space after Carry capitalization

" Open double quote, capitalize next
	K3R5067 {~|"^}{-|} Space before No space after Next word is capitalized The number bar acts as the Shift key on QWERTY.

" Close double quote, carry capitalization
	KPRAORB {^~|"} No space before Space after Carry capitalization

Up
	KPRAOEFP {#Up} For the shapes of the arrow keys, imagine a 2x2 cube. Think Lumines.

Right
	KPRAOEPB {#Right}

Down
	KPRAOERB {#Down}

Left
	KPRAOEFR {#Left}

Insert
	KPRAOEF {#Insert} For Insert, Home, Page Up, Delete, End, and Page Down, these next six strokes should feel just like hitting the keys in QWERTY.

Home
	KPRAOEP {#Home}

Page Up
	KPRAOEL {#Page_Up}

Delete
	KPRAOER {#Delete}

End
	KPRAOEB {#End}

Page Down
	KPRAOEG {#Page_Down}

Num Lock
	KPRAOET {#Num_Lock} Num Lock is to the right of Page Up on QWERTY, so this made sense.

Print Screen
	KPRAOES {#Print} Print Screen, Scroll Lock, and Pause were leftovers that happened to fit perfectly in this space.

Scroll Lock
	KPRAOED {#Scroll_Lock}

Pause
	KPRAOEZ {#Pause}

Escape
	KPRAOETSDZ {#Escape} Made intentionally hard to stroke... and, well, it's the only way I could nicely fit it in this space. You're hitting these four keys with your pinky finger.
