 * The `Shift`, `Alt`, and `Control` modifiers are one-shot. When tapped, they are considered active for the next key press only. When double tapped, they toggle on, until a third, single tap sometime later. When held, they act as expected. My usual pattern is that I use these for the next keypress only, so this behaviour is perfect. If I need them held, I'll just double-tap.
 * The `GUI` key is special, because when I double-tap it, it sends `GUI + w`, which pops up an application selector. It also switches to a one-shot layer, where the number row on the left half turns into app selector macros, for the most common things I usually want to switch to. Otherwise it behaves as on a normal layout.
 * The `ESC` key also doubles as a one-shot cancel key: if tapped while any of the one-shot modifiers are in-flight (as in, single-tapped, and not expired yet), it cancels all one-shot modifiers. It also cancels the **Hun** layer, if active. Otherwise it sends the usual keycode.

-The one-handed layer is used in situations where the right hand is occupied, by mousing around, for example. Tapping the `OTHER` key switches which side is active. For the most part, keys remain in their usual position. When the right half is active, keys are mirrored to the left half.
-
-The differences are as follows:
-
-* The `ESC` key has been moved to the bottom row, so the `OTHER` key is easier to tap.
-* Most keys on the thumb cluster now have dual uses, and these do not change when switching sides:
-    - The `Space`/`Backspace` key sends `Space` on tap, `Backspace` when held for longer than a normal tap.
-    - The `Enter`/`Shift` key sends `Enter` on short-tap, `Shift` on long-tap.
-* The `Apps`/`BASE` key can be used to go back to the base layer, by long-tapping it. A short-tap will send the `App` key, as usual.

 * When the [ADORE layer](#adore-layer) is toggled on, LEDs will light up from left to right in a sequence, then turn off. When the layer is toggled off, the LEDs light up and turn off in the other direction. No LEDs are on while the layer is active.
 * When the [Hungarian layer](#hungarian-layer) is active, the *green* and *blue* LEDs are on.
 * When the [Navigation and media layer](#navigation-and-media-layer) is active, the *red* and *green* ones are on.
-* When the [One-handed layer](#one-handed-layer) is active, the *green* LED is on and bright, and either the *red* or the *blue* one is going to slowly blink, depending on the currently active side.
 * For the [Steno layer](#steno-layer), all LEDs will be turned on.
 
 Unless noted otherwise, the layers use a dim light for the LEDs, while modifiers use a stronger one, and modifiers override any layer preferences. For example, when on the one-handed layer, with the left side active (*red* light blinking), if `Shift` is on, the *red* light will be constantly on.
 
+# Special features
+
+## Unicode Symbol Input
+
+Once in the Unicode Symbol Input mode, one is able to type in symbol names, press `Enter` or `Space`, and get the Unicode symbol itself back. When in the mode, a capital `U` is printed first. Once the sequence is finished, all of it is erased by sending enough `Backspace` taps, and the firmware starts the OS-specific unicode input sequence. Then, it looks up the symbol name, and enters the associated code. If it is not found, it will just replay the pressed keycodes.
+
+The currently supported symbols are:
+
+- `snowman`: ☃
+- `kiss`: 😙
+- `rofl`: 🤣
+- `poop`: 💩
+
+This is an experimental feature, and may or may not work reliably.

+## v1.5 - 2016-08-12
+
+* The **1HAND** layer has been removed.
+* A `Delete` key is now available on the right thumb cluster.
+* The [ADORE](#adore-layer) layer received a major update, see the layout image above.
+* It is now possible to enable automatic logging for the [ADORE](#adore-layer) layer, by setting the `ADORE_AUTOLOG` makefile variable to `yes` when compiling the keymap. It is off by default.
+* The `~` key and the `Media Next/Prev` key have been swapped on the [base layer](#base-layer).
+* On the **ARROW** layer, `Backspace` has been replaced by `Enter`.
+* There is some experimental support for entering Unicode symbols.
+
 ## v1.4 - 2016-07-29
 
 * When toggling the key logging on or off, the LEDs will do a little dance.
