Adds the Happy Hacking Keyboard Professional 60% geometry as a selectable option for EN_US, EN_UK and RU_RU layouts. HHKB has distinctive physical features that don't fit existing ANSI/ISO/Matrix geometries: - Control key on home row (where CapsLock usually sits) - Backquote/Tilde in top-right corner (not top-left) - Backspace labeled 'Delete', on row 1 right of ']' - No dedicated arrow cluster — Fn-layer instead - Split bottom row: Alt and Meta (Diamond) keys around wide Space Layout follows HHKB Pro Hybrid Mac mode (Apple-style bottom row: Diamond/Command closer to Space, Alt farther out).
On HHKB Pro the Alt key is conventionally pressed with the pinky (same as on full-size keyboards). Only Space and Meta (◆) stay in the thumb zone — Meta because on 60% boards it's natural to press with the thumb for ⌘+C/V/Z shortcuts.
