rime-colemak

About

This implements the Colemak layout under Rime. The primary use case is to type plain text in Colemak, but be able to use QWERTY shortcuts.

Installing

First ensure you have plum installed. For macOS this would be:

cd ~/Library/Rime
wget https://git.io/rime-install

For Linux this would be:

cd ~/.config/fcitx/rime
wget https://git.io/rime-install

Then install gkovacs/rime-colemak using plum:

bash rime-install gkovacs/rime-colemak

Finally edit default.custom.yaml and add colemak to the schema list:

patch:
  schema_list:
    - schema: colemak

If you wish to change the hotkey for changing keyboard layout or the layout that it switches to, create a file colemak.custom.yaml and add the following, substituting your desired shortcut:

patch:
  key_binder:
    import_preset: default
    bindings:
      - {accept: "Control+space", select: td_pinyin_flypy_extra, when: always}
