Square brackets on keyboard layout

[cwlo2F]

Bug description

It maybe just my ignorance of syntax, but I cannot add square brackets on the top row of the keyboard.
The document does not provide any information about how to add curly brackets or square brackets on the keyboard layout.

Steps to reproduce

1. Add #!KeyboardAccessoryViewLayout [[][]] to ssh config file
2. Blank key appears on the top row

Also, it would be great if pairs of brackets or parentheses can be added to keyboard layout as special keys, so that one can open and close by flipping the key.

Hello @cwlo2F 👋

You're right square and curly brackets can't be added right now. I will make an improvement very soon.

Also, it would be great if pairs of brackets or parentheses can be added to keyboard layout as special keys, so that one can open and close by flipping the key.

Could you tell me more about this statement?

[cwlo2F]

I would like to suggest adding special keyboard layout keys for parentheses. These keys could be designed to slide left or right, similar to {ARROWS}, to type opening and closing parentheses efficiently.
It would be quite useful for editing scripts on WebSSH. I look forward to your consideration of this feature!

That's a good idea 😉

It could be longer however than fixing the ability to add "simple" curly and bracket keys above the keyboard.

So just a question :

• Would you like to wait a little longer to have the full feature you describe
• OR
• Would you like to split this issue in two different parts?

Have a nice day ☀️

I feel the fix of keyboard to add brackets should precede to the special keys. It would be good to split the issue.
