Description

A great feature that could eventually be added to Scribe would be to allow users to add alternate keys to certain keyboard keys. Most keyboard that have alternates have a wide variety of options, but sometimes a user would need another character if they're using words from a second language frequently. Allowing Scribe keyboards to be personalized in this regard would be something that few users would use, but those who would use it would likely really appreciate it.

  • This feature would be available in the settings, meaning that this issue is blocked by #16
Contribution

I'd be happy to work on this with people once #16 is finished :)

Start by reviewing the settings work in issue #16, which blocks this feature. Then inspect how keyboard keys and their alternates are represented and where keyboard personalization belongs in settings. Confirm the supported behavior and completion criteria with maintainers before beginning implementation.
