They do have them. They are just accessed via a modifier key similar to shift. See here: https://qmk.fm/keyboards/planck/keymap-printout-default-qwerty.pdf
Oh damn, so you can program your regular letters to do that!!! Nice. I'm JUST starting to get into mechanical keyboards and don't really know much. I have a Corsair K70 pro RGB with red buttons. It's nice, but I just can't get used to typing on it. I'm always hitting two buttons at a time. I have to lift my fingers really high and type. Second issue is the metallic ping. So, I've been doing some research to find me something I enjoy and also easy to type on. I love the clickitty clacks (or what they call thock). ๐
Yeah, they're infinitely customizable. I have two regular keys where my space bar should be on my keyboard. As a result, I've programmed tapping the left one to insert a space, but holding it down acts as CTRL, and tapping the right acts as backspace, while holding down the right acts as shift.
Pretty cool. Thank you. I like watching videos on all these types of keyboards.
