The customised "layers"       are all stored natively within the keyboard, not using any runtime o/s       driver.                     [*] actually a salty electrolyte drink, which I figure could do worse       things to the PCB than even a sugary drink?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
