<h2>Description</h2>
13
+
<p>The Mara Keyboard is designed for the Mara people to type easily in their language.</p>
14
+
<p>The Mara Keyboard is based on the standard English (QWERTY) layout, but includes special characters for the Mara language.</p>
15
+
<ul>
16
+
<li>The <strong>Q</strong> key has been replaced with <strong>Â</strong> (unshifted <strong>â</strong>).</li>
17
+
<li>The <strong>X</strong> key has been replaced with <strong>Ô</strong> (unshifted <strong>ô</strong>).</li>
18
+
<li>The <strong>J</strong> key produces the digraph <strong>Ch</strong>.
19
+
<ul>
20
+
<li>Press <strong>j</strong> for <strong>ch</strong></li>
21
+
<li>Press <strong>Shift</strong> + <strong>j</strong> for <strong>Ch</strong></li>
22
+
<li>Turn on <strong>Caps Lock</strong> and press <strong>j</strong> for <strong>CH</strong></li>
23
+
</ul>
24
+
</li>
25
+
</ul>

+
<h3>Typing Original English Letters</h3>
28
+
<p>If you need to type the original English <strong>q</strong>, <strong>x</strong>, or <strong>j</strong>, you can use the <strong>Right Alt (AltGr)</strong> key:</p>
29
+
<ul>
30
+
<li><strong>Right Alt</strong> + <strong>q</strong> = <strong>q</strong> (Hold Shift for <strong>Q</strong>)</li>
31
+
<li><strong>Right Alt</strong> + <strong>x</strong> = <strong>x</strong> (Hold Shift for <strong>X</strong>)</li>
32
+
<li><strong>Right Alt</strong> + <strong>j</strong> = <strong>j</strong> (Hold Shift for <strong>J</strong>)</li>
33
+
</ul>
34
+
35
+
<h3>Smart Backspace (Step-Wise Backspacing)</h3>
36
+
<p>The keyboard features smart, step-wise backspacing for circumflex characters. Pressing <strong>Backspace</strong> immediately after typing <strong>â</strong>, <strong>Â</strong>, <strong>ô</strong>, or <strong>Ô</strong> will only delete the circumflex (<strong>^</strong>) and leave the base letter intact. Pressing it a second time will delete the base letter.</p>
37
+
38
+
<p>This allows for easy typing of the Mara alphabet while retaining access to standard English letters. The rest of the keys follow the standard QWERTY layout.</p>
39
+
<p>The touch layout for phones follows a similar pattern, with the special characters readily available on the main keyboard layer.</p>
