James Morgan 49d8f1c5ed Updated keymaps to allow base layer alternation for QWERTY, Colemak & Dvorak (#1962)
* First commit of the Terminus_Mini firmware and the DivergeJM version of the Nyquist firmware

* Fix terminus_mini & nyquist/DivergeJM readme files

Previously an outdated copy of the default readme. Updated to match the  Nyquist/DivergeJM format (DivergeJM is a split 5x12 implementation of the terminus_mini layout)

* Update makefiles to rules.mk

Renamed both Makefiles to rules.mk, removed references to makefiles

* Updated rules.mk

Inadvertantly removed important code from the rules.mk in previous commit. This has been restored.

Also disabled Tap_Dance in both rules.mk files

* Moved terminus_mini to handwired

Realised that existing directory was not appropriate for the terminus_mini project, moved to handwired.

* New Frosty Flake layout for QFR TKL

Added a TKL layout for the Frosty Flake with a navigation cluster on LOWER under the left hand and a similarly functioning MOUSE layer that includes mouse navigation functionality.

* README fix & keymap update for 3 keyboards

Fixed the markdown for the handwired/terminus_mini:default, Nyqyist:DivergeJM & frosty_flake:QFR_JM.

Added TAPPING_TERM =  150 to config.h for all keyboards

Switched LT(LOWER) and LAlt on the mod row for ortholinear boards.

* Update readme for QFR_JM to include make instructions

* Revert "Merge branch 'master' of https://github.com/mogranjm/qmk_firmware"

This reverts commit a45f264ada09acc14fb85390407bc7ff5bb021e3, reversing
changes made to 62349c33410671a33d4041d50cf27de1d6bdd9cf.

* Revert "Revert "Merge branch 'master' of https://github.com/mogranjm/qmk_firmware""

This reverts commit eae54fb3be2c60dffd704261f84bab98c9e06f93.

* Added QWERTY support to the QFR_JM

Implemented variable default base layer from the Planck default keymap.

* Update README to reflect QWERTY support

* Nyquist:DivergeJM - Update RESET location

Add a reset button to both hands, accessible when halves are disconnected.

* Typo fix

* Update DivergeJM

Switched master to Left hand,
Moved Reset key to a different location

* Added macros to send R pointer & dplyr pipe

Macros added as a string of keypresses, couldn't figure out how to get SEND_STRING to work.

* Added ADJUST -> QWERTY, DVORAK, COLEMAK

Re-implemented update_tri_layer fuctionality to reset base layer for Terminus_Mini & DivergeJM Nyquist keymaps to QWERTY, DVORAK or COLEMAK via the ADJUST layer.

Updated ReadMe files accordingly.

* Fix base layout diagram for Terminus_Mini

Remove split from diagram

* Changed the R operators to SEND_STRING, rather than keypress macros

* Added Dvorak to the QFR_JM keymap

* fixed duplicate row in Nyquist keymap

* Fix readme - LAlt location on mouse layer

* Set EE_HANDS to allow either Nyquist hand to work as master.

* Update R operator strings, clean up layering for terminus_mini, QFR_JM and DivergeJM

"<-" to " <- "
"%>%" to " %>% "

Also played around with the layering, removed unnecessary TAP_TOGGLE for LOWER and shuffled FUNCTION and MOUSE momentary actions to reflect layer order.

* Update bottom alpha row to output symbols on LOWER

This row now outputs the following (z -> /) when in the LOWER layer:
 <-
 %>%
{
[
`
|
]
}
.
/

* Updated readme files for QFR_JM, terminus_mini & DivergeJM

QFR_JM readme reflects correct LOWER bottom row symbol output,
terminus_mini & DivergeJM reflect correct command line make instructions.

* Add media keys to QFR_JM LOWER - Replicate QFR default functionality

* Fix issue with Mouse layering

Stuck on mouse layer because the wrong macro was assigned to the 'exit layer' key. Reassigned that key.

* Changed " <- " to "<- " for QFR_JM, terminus_mini & DivergeJM

#MogranJM's terminus_mini layout - A handwired keyboard inspired by the UniKeyboard Terminus Mini 2.

make handwired/terminus_mini:default:teensy

This keymap is modified from the Planck default layout. Credit for the layout name goes to UniKeyboard & reddit's /u/blahlicus)

The terminus_mini is a handwired 4x12 ortholinear keyboard with two 2U thumb bar keys. The microcontroller is a Teensy 2.0

The TERMINUS_MINI layout (../../../terminus_mini/terminus_mini.h) is handwired and the 2U keys are handled using KC_NO to detail that two columns do not have a 4th column.

Base Layer - Colemak

The base layout is Colemak. Since the CapsLock key is replaced with BackSpace, this layout has the delete key in the traditional backspace location.

  • QWERTY and Dvorak layers are accessible via the Adjust layer using the standard case switch macro as defined in the default Planck keymap.
  • I've implemented COLEMAK = SAFE_RANGE when enumerating the custom_keycodes, but I don't actually know what this does...
  • Space cadet is implemented in the shift keys (hold for shift, tap for respective parentheses)
  • I never find myself using the right-modifiers on a standard keyboard, so I've only implemented LGUI and LALT. I have intentions of improving my use of the ctrl key in correct hand alternation, so CTRL is implemented in both outside corners of the home row.

Layer Shifting

  • The 4th key on the bottom row of the left hand PCB is used to access the LOWER layer via Tap/Toggle
  • The left 2U key is a TAP_KEY macro - Hold for momentary LOWER layer, Tap for Space.
  • The right 2U key is a TAP_KEY macro - Hold for momentary RAISE layer, Tap for Enter
  • The 2nd key on the bottom row of the right hand PCB is a LAYER_MOMENTARY for the FUNCTION layer
  • The 3rd key on the bottom row of the right hand PCB is a TAP_TOGGLE macro for the MOUSE layer

LOWER - Numpad & Navigation keys

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
|  Tab | PgUp | Home |  Up  |  End |      |   7  |   8  |   9  |  +   |      | Del  |

| Ctrl | LGUI | Alt  | LOWER| Space/Lower |      0      |   .  |  Fn  | Menu | Ctrl |
'-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

The LOWER layer contains a navigation cluster on the left hand and a numpad on the right. This layer is momentary when the left thumb-bar or LOWER key is held and toggled on/off when the LOWER key is tapped.

  • The Navigation cluster is offset to the right compared to the traditional WASD nav cluster. With this implementation, you don't need to move your hand from the home position when navigating. Page Up & Down keys are found on the far left of the cluster.

  • All unused (blank on the above keymap) keys are locked out using the XXXXXXX filler (KC_NO), all modifiers (edge |_| keys [except 0, . & Fn] on the above keymap) and the ZXCV cluster are transparent (_______) to the Base layer.

[] TO DO!! - It would be nice to have a TAP_DANCE_DOUBLE implementation whereby a double tap of the right 2U key sends KC_PENT

  • Couldn't get this to work in Rev1, produced an error in the Make process.
  • When this is done, I can remove the clunky double Enter on the 4th column of the right hand PCB.

RAISE - Symbol Layer

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------.
| Tab |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |     |  \  |
|-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----|
| BS  |  !  |  @  |  #  |  $  |  %  |  ^  |  &  |  *  |  -  |  +  |  '  |
|-----+-----+-----+-----+-----------+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----|
| LSPO| <-  | %>% |  {  |  [  |  `  |  |  |  ]  |  }  |  .  |  ?  |RSPC |
|-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----+-----|
| Ctrl|LGUI |     |Lower|Space/Lower|Enter/Raise|  Fn |Mouse| Menu| Ctrl|
'-----------------------------------------------------------------------'

The RAISE layer contains the symbols. This layer is momentary when the right thumb bar is held.

  • Standard symbols can be found on the home row, in the traditional number row order as they occur on a standard keyboard.
  • Shifted symbols can be found on the second-from bottom row, abovee the bars - these include brackets, braces, grave and pipe keys.
    • At this stage, you need to shift to get to the Tilde key. I'd like to remove the shift requirement as I've done with the Pipe, but we'll see.
    • Special operators for R (Pointer: <- and dplyr pipe: %>%) can be found next to the left shift key
  • The bottom row of this layer is a replication of that of the Base layer, except that the TAP_TOGGLE LOWER key is blocked with XXXXXXX.

FUNCTION - Function & Media keys

,-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------.
| Esc  | Mute | Vol- | Vol+ |      |      |      |      |      |      |      | Ins  |
|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------|
| Caps | Stop | |<<  | >/|| |  >>| |      |      |      |      |      |      |PrtSc |
|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------|
| LSOB |      |      |      |      |      |      |      |      |      |      |ScrLk |
|------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------+------|
| Ctrl | LGUI | Alt  |      | Space/Lower | Enter/Raise |  Fn  | Mouse|      |PsBrk |
'-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

The FUNCTION layer contains media keys as well as the F-row. This layer is momentary and requires Fn to be held.

  • The media cluster is based on the nav cluster in the LOWER layer, with RW, PP & FF in the Left, Down & Right positions.
  • Mute, and Vol +/- are next to each other in ascending (L->R) volume order, Stop is below Mute.
  • Insert, Print Screen, Scroll Lock & Pause Break are all implemented on the far right column. I don't really use these keys so their position is not optimised.
  • Caps lock is implemented on this layer, in the traditional position, in place of BackSpace on the Base layer.

MOUSE - Mouse keys: The functionality of this layer is not as optimal as using a true mouse, generally slower but will work in a pinch.

| Ctrl |      |      |      |Sensitivity | Sensitivity|      |MOUSE |      | Ctrl |
'---------------------------------------------------------------------------------'

The MOUSE layer contains keys replicating functions found on the mouse.

  • The navigation cluster (Up, Down, Left, Right) is a replication of the Navigation cluster on the LOWER layer. The scroll keys are nalagous to the Page Up & Down keys. *) The primary click (right & left) buttons are on the right home row (index & middle fingers)
  • Secondary click buttons are above the standard keys (M3/Wheel click, M4, M5) but I do not use this function.

ADJUST - Keyboard Settings: Primarily used to change the base layer at this stage
