     14 # Default Clueboard Layout
     15 
     16 This is the default layout that comes flashed on every Clueboard. For the most
     17 part it's a straightforward and easy to follow layout. The only unusual key is
     18 the key in the upper left, which sends Escape normally, but Grave when any of
     19 the Ctrl, Alt, or GUI modifiers are held down.
