SuperPET Keyboard Layout
for Keyman
Type every PETSCII, ZX80, ZX81, and ZX Spectrum character.
Type many block element and box drawing characters easily.
The Layout
Kreative SuperPET keyboard layout is based on the PETSCII character set and keyboard
from the Commodore PET and its descendants, including David Murray's Commander X16.
SuperPET allows you to type the equivalent Unicode characters using a similar mapping.
Many of these characters have been made available for the first time in Unicode 13.0.
Type graphical characters using Option on Mac OS X, Right Alt on Linux and Windows.

Two diagonal box drawing characters have been moved from the V and N keys to the period and comma
keys to make room for block element characters which are equivalent to box drawing characters in
PETSCII but have been disunified in Unicode. The pound symbol (£) has been placed on the 3 key.
Otherwise all other symbols are in the same locations as on the Commander X16 keyboard.
Alt-4 is mapped to U+F821, which is the Commodore logo in the Kreative Kore fonts.
