This reverts commit b85b67c2f0.
The Ctrl key was too hard to use in the new position, especially in
combination with arrows or backspace.
Leave the switching key in the numeric layout however, where the Ctrl
key is not very useful. Put Ctrl on the top-right because bottom-right
is where the switching key is in the other layouts.
Allow specifying a layout for programming and add a key for switching to
it easily.
The switching key is placed on the top edge of the space bar.
The option has no effect by default because the ergonomic isn't ideal,
it needs to be enabled explicitly.
Users of Latin-script languages certainly prefer to use one layout (for
programming or not). This feature might be removed in favor of a better
language-switching mechanisms in the future.
These keys are harder to hit as the finger might exit the screen before
traveling enough to hit a corner. It might be particularly harder for
people that use a phone case.
Every layouts are changed, the notable changes are:
- The Escape key is in the bottom-right corner of the first key.
This position looks weird at first but is a lot easier to type.
- The 0 key is on the top-left of the last key on the first row.
It is not like the other digits.
- The Tab key is on the top-right. This might be hard to re-learn.
- Some layouts had more changes to accomodate these new positions.

Added the middle dot (·) to the Spanish keyboard, in order to be able to type
Catalan words and names. Catalan is spoken in Eastern Spain, and the middle top
is therefore included in standard PC Spanish keyboards.
Also changed the Tab key to an upwards-leftwards swipe, as to follow more closely
the programmer's layout qwerty.xml
This is only to make this layout more similar to the default English layout.
Macrons are not actually used in any language spoken in Spain, but they
appear to be used in some varieties of Nahuatl?
Also added C-cedilla to the N-tilde key. Even if both C-cedilla and N-tilde
are redundant in this keyboard, both letters are a staple of Spain keyboards,
and Spaniards are used to have a dedicated key for C-cedilla in PC keyboards.
* Providing a comprehensible Brazilian Portuguese keyboard layout
removed cedille as it is already provided by an independent key;
changed layout to correspond to the locale
Using the --product option of aapt.
Remove the app name from translations because it is never translated. It
is still possible to translate it by specifying 'product="default"'.
* Clicking twice on CTRL or ALT will lock them in 'ON' state
* Make Locking behaviour optional, configurable in preferences
* Nest the new settings into a different page
To avoid spamming the settings page and repetition in the summaries.
Cannot be a popup unfortunately because that would require API >= 11.
* Add Fn and Meta

* Added brazilian portuguese translations for app description and settings
* making the swiping option more intelligible
* fix typo on full_description pt-BR translation

For the Dark and Light theme. At the same time, use only "web safe
colors" to have nice round numbers and ensure enough contrasts between
colors.
The background color is kept at the previous value, there's not enough
contrast between the background and the keys but that's better than a
solid black background.
Instead of a fixed size that don't work at all for bigger screens.
Other tweaks:
- Use the value-land dimens to vary 'extra_horizontal_margin'
- Move label size to Config, because it can change at runtime (rotation)
- Slightly decrease the size of "long" symbols
`res/xml/qwerty_lv.xml` was updated to add the missing full stop
character (`.`) as it got lost when the bottom row was moved to a
separate XML `res/xml/bottom_row.xml` as it was placed on the
arrows key.
Additionally `?` was relocated, giving its place to the full stop.
Show these characters only for users that have the corresponding locale
installed (a supported eu language for €, en-GB for £).
Add these characters to most layouts.
Depending on the pixel density isn't ideal for a keyboard, which would
render differently depending on the "scaling" accessibility option.
Landscape mode needs a special values. At the same time, increase the
horizontal margin when landscape.
MIUI inverts the colors of the app it thinks doesn't implement dark
themes correctly. Also, it inverts the colors in the dumbest possible
way: it doesn't invert all the colors the same way.
It thinks that presumably because I don't use the Material base themes.
- Add the umlauts back.
- Remove the accents. QWERTZ changes from "programming layout" to
"localized layout".
- Move the '?' away from the edge of the screen.
Add a new boolean parameter "edgekeys" for defining keys that have the
additional (swipe) keys on the edges (top, right, left, bottom) instead
of at the corners (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right).
Currently using the diamond symbol like the history meta key: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meta_key
However, this key is actually interpreted as the Super/Windows key but
Android calls it "meta" internally.
