Updates
-------
#### 2015/10/28
Merged TMK updates from the past few months, and separately additions into /quantum. You can make a new quantum-based project by using `./new_project.sh <project_name>`, which will create /keyboard/<project_name>.
There are lots of new features, and they'll be documented soon. ### Getting started
#### 2015/04/22 You can create your own Quantum-based project by using `./new_project.sh <project_name>`, which will create `/keyboard/<project_name>` with all the necessary components for a Quantum project.
Core library was separated to other branch `core`. <https://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard/tree/core>
In `Makefile` you need to set `TMK_DIR` to indicate core library location now. You have access to a bunch of goodies! Check out the Makefile to enable/disable some of the features. Uncomment the `#` to enable them. Setting them to `no` does nothing and will only confuse future you.
TMK_DIR = ../../tmk_core BACKLIGHT_ENABLE = yes # Enable keyboard backlight functionality
MIDI_ENABLE = yes # MIDI controls
# UNICODE_ENABLE = yes # Unicode support
BLUETOOTH_ENABLE = yes # Enable Bluetooth with the Adafruit EZ-Key HID
### Mod shortcuts
* `LSFT(kc)` - applies left shift to *kc* - `S(kc)` is an alias
* `RSFT(kc)` - applies right shift to *kc*
* `LCTL(kc)` - applies left control to *kc*
* `RCTL(kc)` - applies right control to *kc*
* `LALT(kc)` - applies left alt to *kc*
* `RALT(kc)` - applies right alt to *kc*
* `LGUI(kc)` - applies left gui (command/win) to *kc*
* `RGUI(kc)` - applies right gui (command/win) to *kc*
You can also use more than one, like this:
LALT(LGUI(KC_ESC))
The following shortcuts automatically add `LSFT()` to keycodes to get commonly used symbols. Their long names (see `quantum/keymap_common.h`) are also availble.

### Function shortcuts
Instead of using `FNx`, you can use `F(x)` - the benefit here is being able to use more than 32 function layers (up to 4096), if you happen to need them.
There are also keycode shortcuts for common actions:
* `MO(layer)` - momentary switch to *layer*
* `DF(layer)` - sets default layer to *layer*
* `TG(layer)` - toggle between the current layer and *layer*
* `MT(mod, kc)` - is *mod* when held, and *kc* when tapped
* `CTL_T(kc)` - is LCTL when held and *kc* when tapped
* `SFT_T(kc)` - is LSFT when held and *kc* when tapped
* `ALT_T(kc)` - is LALT when held and *kc* when tapped
* `GUI_T(kc)` - is LGUI when held and *kc* when tapped
* `ALL_T(kc)` - is Hyper (all mods) when held and *kc* when tapped
* `LT(layer, kc)` - momentary switch to *layer* when held, and *kc* when tapped
These functions work the same way that their `ACTION_*` functions do, and will require KC_TRNS on the layer being switched to - check out the default keymap for an example.
### Additional keycodes for software-implemented layouts (Colemak, Dvorak, etc)
Everything is assuming you're in Qwerty (in software) by default, but there is built-in support for using a Colemak or Dvorak layout by including this at the top of your keymap:
#include "keymap_<layout>.h"
Where <layout> is "colemak" or "dvorak". After including this line, you will get access to:
* `CM_*` for all of the Colemak-equivalent characters
* `DV_*` for all of the Dvorak-equivalent characters
These implementations assume you're using Colemak or Dvorak on your OS, not on your keyboard - this is referred to as a software-implemented layout. If your computer is in Qwerty and your keymap is in Colemak or Dvorak, this is referred to as a firmware-implemented layout, and you won't need these features.
To give an example, if you're using software-implemented Colemak, and want to get an `F`, you would use `CM_F` - `KC_F` under these same circumstances would result in `T`.
### Additional language support
In `quantum/keymap_extras/`, you'll see various language files - these work the same way as the alternative layout ones do. Most are defined by their two letter country/language code followed by an underscore and a 4-letter abbrivation of its name. `FR_UGRV` which will result in a `ù` when using a software-implemented AZERTY layout. It's currently difficult to send such characters in just the firmware (but it's being worked on - see Unicode support).
### Unicode support
You can currently send 4 hex digits with your OS-specific modifier key (RALT for OSX with the "Unicode Hex Input" layout) - this is currently limited to supporting one OS at a time, and requires a recompile for switching. 8 digit hex codes are being worked on. The keycode function is `UC(n)`, where *n* is a 4 digit hexidecimal. Enable from the Makefile.
### Macro shortcuts
Instead of using the `ACTION_MACRO` function, you can simply use `M(n)` to access macro *n* - *n* will get passed into the `action_get_macro` as the `id`, and you can use a switch statement to filter them. This gets called on the keydown and keyup, so you'll need to use an if statement testing `record->event.pressed` (see keymap_default.c).
### Other keyboard shortcut keycodes
* `RESET` - puts the MCU in DFU mode for flashing new firmware (with `make dfu`)
* `DEBUG` - the firmware into debug mode - you'll need hid_listen to see things
* `BL_ON` - turns the backlight on
* `BL_OFF` - turns the backlight off
* `BL_<n>` - sets the backlight to level *n*
* `BL_INC` - increments the backlight level by one
* `BL_DEC` - decrements the backlight level by one
* `BL_TOGG` - toggles the backlight
* `BL_STEP` - steps through the backlight levels
Enable the backlight from the Makefile.
### MIDI functionalty
This is still a WIP, but check out `quantum/keymap_midi.c` to see what's happening. Enable from the Makefile.
### Bluetooth functionality
This requires [some hardware changes](https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3psx0q/the_planck_keyboard_with_bluetooth_guide_and/?ref=search_posts), but can be enabled via the Makefile. The firmware will still output characters via USB, so be aware of this when charging via a computer. It would make sense to have a switch on the Bluefruit to turn it off at will.

- Use `LSFT()`, `LCTL()`, et. al. (listed in keymap_common.h) as modifiers for keys (daisy-chain-able) BACKLIGHT_ENABLE = yes # Enable keyboard backlight functionality
- Use `FUNC(1)` instead of `FN1` (etc.) to access the function layers beyond the 32 function layer limit MIDI_ENABLE = yes # MIDI controls
- Use `CM_F` instead of `KC_F` to get the ColeMak equivilent for shortcuts (maps backwards) # UNICODE_ENABLE = yes # Unicode support
- Use `MACRODOWN()` instead of `MACRO()` to easily make a keydown macro (`CM_*` works here too) BLUETOOTH_ENABLE = yes # Enable Bluetooth with the Adafruit EZ-Key HID
### Some notes on usage: ### Mod shortcuts
- The `KEYMAP()` macro is unable to be used due to the bitwise modifications that take place - refer to extended_keymap_jack.c to see how to set things up with the `KC_` prefix * `LSFT(kc)` - applies left shift to *kc* - `S(kc)` is an alias
- Keep an eye on the Makefile - this needs to include the correct files to work * `RSFT(kc)` - applies right shift to *kc*
- Don't forget to use `const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = {` instead of the 8bit equivilent * `LCTL(kc)` - applies left control to *kc*
* `RCTL(kc)` - applies right control to *kc*
* `LALT(kc)` - applies left alt to *kc*

## Build You can also use more than one, like this:
Follow [this guide](http://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/how-to-build-your-very-own-keyboard-firmware-t7177.html) to setup your development environment before anything else. Abbreviated instructions are provide at the [bottom of this document](https://github.com/rswiernik/tmk_keyboard/tree/rswiernik_dev/keyboard/planck#environment-setup) LALT(LGUI(KC_ESC))
Download the whole firmware [here](https://github.com/jackhumbert/tmk_keyboard/archive/master.zip) and navigate to the keyboard/planck folder. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to type `make` to generate your .hex that you can load with the Teensy app onto your Planck (once you've hit reset/shorted GND & RST). The following shortcuts automatically add `LSFT()` to keycodes to get commonly used symbols. Their long names (see `quantum/keymap_common.h`) are also availble.

## Building
Download or clone the whole firmware and navigate to the keyboard/planck folder. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to type `make` to generate your .hex - you can then use `make dfu` to program your PCB once you hit the reset button.
Depending on which keymap you would like to use, you will have to compile slightly differently. Depending on which keymap you would like to use, you will have to compile slightly differently.
####Default ### Default
To build with the default keymap, simply move to the tmk\_keyboard/keyboard/planck/ and run `make` as follows: To build with the default keymap, simply run `make`.
```
$ make
```
## Keymap ### Other Keymaps
Several version of keymap are available in advance but you are recommended to define your favorite layout yourself. To define your own keymap create file named `keymap_<name>.c` and see keymap document (you can find in top README.md) and existent keymap files.
