I haven't done it yet, but since like 2010 I've been tempted to make a keyboard that applies a homestuck-like typing quirk.someday...

my current project is a programmable keyboard(ish), maybe I could throw a second RP2040 board in there (god knows I have enough of them) and make it a USB host Then I can use the programmable keyboard to program USB keyboard transformer-adapters. so a script could alter keys. so like, a l33ting keyboard would change every "e" to "3"

the trick would be to do this in a high-enough-level way that it's not a pain to write these. maybe even a metascript: apply regex to incoming keypresses

it's probably a bad sign if you can make a project simpler by just using a regex

I did make a keyboard that worked like this before: my poetry keyboard was a teensy-based keyboard that also had a host port, so it could listen to keypresses on the (physically) modified keyboard
