The numbers and most of the punctuation are on the fn layer with a
numpad-style arrangement under the right hand:
: ! @ { } | || pgup 7 8 9 *
: # $ ( ) ` || pgdn 4 5 6 +
: % ^ [ ] ~ || \ 1 2 3 ?
- : reset & || hwdv . 0 =
+ : reset paste || hwdv . 0 =
An alternate layout has the numbers in a more traditional row across the top:
: 1 2 3 4 5 || 6 7 8 9 0
: - + ( ) = || . [ ] { }
: ! @ # $ % || ^ & * ~ ?
- : reset & ` || hwdv _ | \
+ : reset paste ` || hwdv pgup pgdn \
