Trying out a new chorded layout

Yep, it's asetniop. It's got everything besides the "partials" feature since that's, a, really hard to understand how to implement; and, b, the dictionary for it would too large to fit on an atmega anyway.

However, that could be improved !

AI: If we were to construct a language using only those nine characters and exclude offensive language, we might start by assigning each character a specific meaning or function, such as:

F: Denotes a statement or declaration.
U: Denotes a question or inquiry.
C: Denotes a command or instruction.
K: Denotes a response or acknowledgement.
S: Denotes a description or adjective.
P: Denotes a location or position.
E: Denotes a time or duration.
Z: Denotes a negation or opposite.

Using these definitions, we might be able to construct simple sentences such as:

FUS: "I declare a question."
CUP: "Move to the position."
SPE: "It is located there."
KUS: "I acknowledge the question."
CEF: "Stop for a duration."
SUZ: "It is not descriptive."

However, it's worth noting that this language would be difficult to use in practice and would not be able to express complex ideas or emotions.

Sounds reasonable to me...

you can actually type the full english alphabet with it (and more!). like this entire comment, for example!!!

For hitbox you probably want something like fightergo. There are others I've seen but this is just one example.
