qgmlwb for X (linux)
be sure to set the correct permissions for the installed files, as the common layout loader programs do not give obvious error messages. this is the only possible problem i know of.
for use with fcitx see also custom keyboard layout under linux X11.
i am using qgmlwb for many years now, probably more than five years. it is not a common layout and the most similar more popular layout is perhaps colemak.
the qgmlwb layout for x11 (x.org) in a single text file that is easy to edit. it works on almost all gnu/linux distributions with graphical interface (ubuntu, mint, arch, you name it)

with rearranged special characters. to give priority to characters like ()[]{}\/_- for programming
