Notes:
- To type in Blackfoot Syllabics, this keyboard
must have the caps lock key on. When the caps lock
is off, it functions like a standard US keyboard. This way, users can
quickly and easily switch between Blackfoot syllabics and Roman
orthography.
- A few keys are for the practical orthography only, such as the
raised dot accent (grave-accent key), raised dot (shift-k), and the
colon (shift-n).
- The key layout has been organised with ergonomics in mind, where
the most common characters are on the most convenient keys. For
example, the extremely prevalent t- and k‑series
are typed using an index finger, whereas the significantly rarer p-
and w‑series employ the pinky.
