# The baseline effort is based on the distance required
# to reach each key position. Assumed here is a standard 101-key
# layout and conventional finger placement. These distances are
# combined with other typing effort model parameters, such as
# key-finger assignment, finger penalties, hand penalties,
# and path stroke.
#
# The units of distance are arbitrary, but their relative values
# should correspond to actual key distances.
#
# These specific values are key distances in cm on my benq x120 keyboard.
# Distances are approximate and measured the centers of the key.
