Subject: GNU Emacs Custom Mechanical Keyboard Keycaps

Message-ID: <1109857539.2058401.1340407813873.JavaMail.root@cmu-mailstore04> (raw)

Greetings! I have a question I thought the GNU Emacs community would be interested in.

I'm currently seeking a mechanical keyboard for professional and gaming 
uses on my GNU/Linux machine. I found a company which can custom build 
said keyboard with any writing or symbols I desire either laser-etched or engraved. 
Naturally, I would like to have certain keys visually stick out to 
indicate GNU Emacs functionality (as vi vi vi is the symbol of the Beast).

Which keys would you edit (space permitting on such a small surface) to 
indicate GNU Emacs functionality?

I'm thinking about editing the <alt> key to read <META> on top and alt 
in italics below it. Also, the F10 key would read Emacs Menu underneath 
the F10 label.

I realize this is a rather unusual request but it would mean a great 
deal to me to have your input on this input device.

Sincerely,

/tmp
