<h1>Neo – an Ergonomic Keyboard Layout, optimized for the German Language</h1>
<ul>
<li>Optimizations regarding <ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency">Letter Frequency</a> as well as <ahref="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-gram">Bi– and Trigrams</a> given by the German Language (on Layer 1 and 2)</li>
<li>Directly underneath your finger tips lie frequently used chars for Programming Languages (on Layer 3)</li>
You'd also want to have a font like <ahref="http://dejavu.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Download">Deja Vu</a> or <ahref="http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=89513">Libertine</a> to see all the fancy Neo–typeable chars!
<li><em>Try–out and Non–Administrators</em>: Just run <ahref="http://neo-layout.org/neo20.exe">neo20.exe</a>. To deactivate and switch back: Double-click on the Neo–Trayicon, or use [Shift]+[Pause]! (Peek at Neo: [CapsLock]+[F1])</li>
<li><em>Administrator Priviledges</em>: After System backup, look at <ahref="http://neo-layout.org/kbdneo32.zip">kbdneo32.zip</a> for a 32–, or at <ahref="http://neo-layout.org/kbdneo64.zip">kbdneo64.zip</a> for a 64–Bit Windows: Run reg_backup.bat (and get your registry keys for deinstalling Neo!), copy kbdneo2.dll to C:\Windows\system32\ per Windows Explorer(!), run kbdneo2_install.reg. Now there's Neo under the Control panel's keyboard configuration task as a variant after selecting German as keyboard language. For using cursors etc. you will also have to run <ahref="http://neo-layout.org/kbdneo_ahk.exe">kbdneo_ahk.exe</a>. To deactivate and switch back: Use the keyboard layout icon, or press [Ctrl]+[Shift]. Deinstallation: Either only choose your old layout, or purge Neo away: After deselecting Neo as keyboard layout, run kbdneo2_uninstall.reg, and run the registry keys got at installation by reg_backup.bat</li>
(Layers 4 and 6 are not accessible right now :|)Get <ahref="http://wiki.neo-layout.org/browser/mac_osx/neo.keylayout?format=raw">neo.keylayout</a> (if necessary, rename it to this name!) and <ahref="http://wiki.neo-layout.org/browser/mac_osx/neo.icns?format=raw">neo.icns</a>, move both in your directory at ~/Library/Keyboard Layouts, log out and in again, now you can select Neo at the normal Keyboard configuration panel as layout. Mod3 is at ⌥.</p>
