_You_ are garbage.  That keyboard is fantastic.

For one thing, it parallels the Latin characters with most of the
Greek alphabet.  For example, to type "alpha" I just press Win+a
because "a" is parallel to "alpha."  It's the same for "beta" || "b"
and so on.  I can also get an upper-case "alpha" with Shift+Win+a
and so on.

Not all the Greek chars are mapped because they are not all common
in mathematical contexts.  In the "holes" I place other standard
math symbols such as integration, partial differentiation, etc.

As I mentioned, the keyboard needs work.  I only use the "Win" key
and the "Shift+Win" combination but there are a lot of other
combinations possible.  I can create a LOT of math symbols.

But _you_ cannot realize my fantastic keyboard extension because
you are helplessly stuck in that pseudo-modern junk called
Wayland.

I say "fuck Wayland."  Give me X and then get out of the fucking
way.
