This is fantastic! If I had a wish I'd wish for the addition of split keyboard layouts (like Ergodox) and the Granite color scheme.

One minor thing: I can scroll through the list of color schemes with the cursor keys but the selected color scheme doesn't activate until I click with the mouse. I don't know if it is possible but it would be cool if you could zap through the color schemes just with the keyboard.

Thanks for making this!

You can also use space or enter to activate i made sure you can do everything from the keyboard alone.

Adding an extra keypress was by design, since I have to generate new textures i.e. (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crsnbrt/keysim/develop/pub...) each time the colorway changes the extra step helps keep cpu usage down.
