Install

Kanata

Kanata is a keyboard remapper that works on Windows, macOS, and Linux.

1. Install Kanata by following “Step 1: Set Up Kanata” in Nova’s Kanata setup guide:

   Step 1: Set Up Kanata (Kanata Guide for Alt Layouts)

2. Download the Kanata config file for the desired version of seht-drai:

   seht-drai (Angle Mod)

   seht-drai (Traditional Rowstag)

   seht-drai (Ortho)

3. Make sure you know how to type your computer password using seht-drai.

   Caution

   Skipping this step will lock you out of your computer. If you forget how to type your password using seht-drai, look up seht-drai on another device, such as a phone, when unlocking the computer.

4. Run Kanata with the downloaded config file and make sure the layout works as you expect:

   kanata --cfg path/to/config.kbd

5. To have seht-drai activate whenever your computer starts up, follow the instructions to “Automatically start Kanata”:

   Automatically start Kanata (Kanata Guide for Alt Layouts)

macOS

There are two downloads available for macOS:

Method	Admin Required	Notes
Native	Optional	Does not require 3rd party key remapping software. Admin is required to install for all users and use on first login.
Karabiner-Elements	Yes	Requires 3rd party key remapping software, including the installation of a Driver Extension. Allows for remapping of only specific keyboards.

Native

1. Download the .keylayout file for the desired version of seht-drai:

   seht-drai (Angle Mod)

   seht-drai (Traditional Rowstag)

   seht-drai (Ortho)

2. Install the .keylayout file:

   Single User

   Copy the downloaded .keylayout file to ~/Library/Keyboard Layouts. Create the folder if it does not exist.

   All Users

   Copy the downloaded .keylayout file to /Library/Keyboard Layouts.

   Note

   By default, macOS hides the “Library” folder. To navigate to it in Finder, open the Go to Folder dialog (Go → Go to Folder… in the menubar, or Command-Shift-G) and type in the path shown above.

3. Restart macOS.

4. Open System Settings.

5. Go to Keyboard → Text Input → Input Sources → Edit… and add your new seht-drai layout.

6. Press the “+” button at the bottom left.

7. Search for “seht-drai,” select your new layout, and press Add.

Note

If you forget how to type your password on seht-drai and get stuck on the Lock Screen, you can switch to your old layout using the Input menu at the top of the screen.

Karabiner-Elements

1. Install Karabiner-Elements:

   Karabiner-Elements

2. Download the Karabiner rule file for the desired version of seht-drai:

   seht-drai (Angle Mod)

   seht-drai (Traditional Rowstag)

   seht-drai (Ortho)

3. In Karabiner-Elements Settings, go to “Complex Modifications,” then press “Add predefined rule” at the top.

4. Make sure you know how to type your computer password using seht-drai.

   Caution

   Skipping this step will lock you out of your computer. If you forget how to type your password using seht-drai, look up seht-drai on another device, such as a phone, when unlocking the computer.

5. Scroll down to the “seht-drai” section and enable the rule you want.

   “All keyboards” remaps seht-drai onto all keyboards while connected to this computer. Select this reason unless you want to exclude some keyboards from remapping.

   “Built-in keyboard only” remaps your device's built-in keyboard, as well as any other keyboard for which “Treat as built-in keyboard” (under the “Devices” section) is enabled. Select this option if you plan to map seht-drai onto an external keyboard using custom firmware.

6. To use seht-drai on the password entry screen before logging in, follow the official instructions:

   How to enable before login
