Keymap: Redox: add a new Colemak keymap, macOS oriented. (#3861) * Add my own keymap to the list of available Redox keymaps. This keymap is a Colemak keymap, and is meant to be used on Mac OS. More information can be found in the readme. * Fix "macOS" typo and remove mention of the license. This directory inherits the project's license. * Add missing custom keycode. * Address feedback from PR review - Remove deprecated code - Remove RGB logic since it is overwritten by code running later.

# A Colemak keymap for the Redox keyboard
----
Keymap: Redox / jeherve: updates (#4694) * Start using send_unicode_hex_string for shrug See https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_unicode?id=send_unicode_hex_string * Make sure one can come back to main layer after tapping to NAV * Add 4 new keys to symbol layer ~, `, =, +, are now more accesssible. No need to reach out far from home row anymore * Add two new macro keys I did not have much use for the Expose key and the right Command key, so opted to replace those with 2 Macros: - One to invoke Alfred: https://www.alfredapp.com/ => Opt + Space - One to invoke 1password: https://1password.com/ => Cmd + Opt + \ * Update readme to mention changes in new version * Remove unneeded short definition * Shorter name for our custom key See https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/4694#discussion_r243341864 * Make macros one-liners See https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/4694#discussion_r243341487 * Switch to using eeconfig_init_user to set Unicode mode See https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/4694#issuecomment-449151724

This keymap is **a work in progress**, and is meant to be used on macOS, with the "Unicode Hex Input" keyboard input.
![macOS keyboard input setting](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/426388/43962498-1ee9e3fc-9cb8-11e8-88e3-dbb068ec5c67.png)
I may change a lot of the keys over the next few months, and will update this repo when I do so.

## Layers
My keymap uses 5 layers:
1. The default base layer, using [Colemak](https://colemak.com/).
2. A Symbol layer, so all symbols can be accessed from the home row. (top right legends)
3. A Navigation / Media layer, with both sound control and arrows on the home row. (bottom right legends)
4. An international / Emoji layer so I can type accented characters commonly used in France and in Hungary, as well as a few Emoji I often use. (top center legends)
5. A keyboard control layer, not pictured above, allowing me to control the LED lighting as well as the keyboard debug functions.

- 2018.12.20
- 2 new Macro keys, to invoke [Alfred](https://www.alfredapp.com/) and [1Password](https://1password.com/).
- No more Right Command key or Expose key, I didn't use those much.
- Updates to use newer QMK function to call ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- Fix: you can now move back to the base layer when double tapping the thumb keys to switch to the Nav layer. 👍

- This keymap is based off the default keymap for the Redox keyboard, available [here](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/tree/master/keyboards/redox) and also build by Mattia Dal Ben (thank you!).
- This layout uses [QMK keyboard controller firmware](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/).
I've also read posts by [Gergely Nagy](https://asylum.madhouse-project.org/blog/2016/10/15/multi-purpose-keys/), [Rebecca Le](https://sevenseacat.net/posts/2018/unicode-in-qmk-on-osx/), and [Justin Rogers](https://implementsblog.com/2016/10/16/my-ergodox-ezs-custom-layout/#comments) for inspiration.
