# T4CORUN Userspace
My userspace for building QMK firmware via GitHub Actions. This does not require a local build environment where files are placed within keyboard subfolders.
The custom layout optimizes for programming (SQL, Powershell, C) and minimizes holds for comfort. It started from [Manna Harbor Miryoku](https://github.com/manna-harbour/miryoku) and took heavy influence from [Jonas Hietala T-34](https://www.jonashietala.se/series/t-34/)
## Features
### Build Non-Tree Keyboards
- Extended the [qmk/.github](https://github.com/qmk/.github) userspace build actions to build non-tree qmk keyboards (e.g. Barbellboards Rollow). This works by copying keyboard definitions from the userspace to the qmk_firmware keyboards folder in the container. The list of keyboards to copy are defined in `qmk_nontree.json`
### Layout Wrapper Macros
A single keymap layout can be shared with multiple keyboards by using C preprocessor macros. These macros are referenced in the keyboard JSON files, and the build process will expand them into a transient keymap.c file during compile time.
In this userspace, the base split 3x5_3 layout can be adapted for other split keyboards by expanding it with macros. For example, there is a wrapper that will add extra columns to the base layout for a Corne's 42-key 3x6_3 layout.
### Tri-Layer
Hold both thumb momentary layer keys `NAV` and `SYM` to access the `_SYMBOL` layer
### One Shot Mods
One Shot Mods is here to minimize holding and simplify layers as mods are not required on every layer. Here we have bi-lateral(ish) GACS mods.
### Caps Word
Caps Word enables temporary all-caps typing without holding shift. Useful to typing programming variables. Tap `shift` twice to enable Caps Word. It cancels when any key is pressed except
- `numbers 0-9`
- `backspace`
- `delete`
- `underscore`
### Tap-Holds
Certain keys have different behaviors when held vs tapped allowing commonly typed characters or auto-shifting certain keycodes
| Keycode | When tapped | When held | Comments |
| --------- | ----------- | ----------------------- | --------------------------------- |
| `TR_LBRC` | `[` | `[]` with cursor inside | |
| `TH_LCBR` | `{` | `{}` with cursor inside | |
| `TR_LABK` | `<` | `<>` with cursor inside | |
| `TR_LPRN` | `(` | `()` with cursor inside | |
| `TR_PERC` | `%` | `^` | |
| `TR_COMM` | `,` | `(` | enables parenthesis on base layer |
| `TR_DOT` | `.` | `)` | |
`Update this table later`
## Optional Features
These features can be disabled due to MCU size constraints or because certain keyboards do not support it
### Pointing Device
Enables trackball functionality on certain boards (e.g., Ploopy Nano and Bastardkb Charybdis Nano). The board definitions enables unique functionality:
- Charybdis Nano: "Sniper" precision tracking, drag Scroll, DPI changes
- Ploopy Nano: Ties with Host Status LED macros to enable drag scroll, dpi changes, and bootloader
Note: `MOUSEKEY_ENABLE` do not need to be enabled in tandem with this to get the mouse buttons.
### Mouse Keys
Enables mouse emulation for all boards. Required when using the Ploopy Nano as that has no mouse buttons.
Hold `a` to enter `_MOUSE` layer. Use right side directional pad (e.g. IJKL) to move the cursor and left side thumb keys for basic mouse clicking.
### RGB Matrix
Taste the rainbow for boards with RGB LEDs and large MCU memory footprints. Enables RGB lighting effects and layer/host status indicators. Review the keyboard files to identify the key position for each LED and update the preprocessor definitions in `config\rgbmatrix_config.h`
**Known Issue** Commented out logic for layer/host status indicator LEDs as it caused random flickering on split side boards
### OLED
Enables keyboard status visualization. Shows currently selected layer, active modifiers, and host status (e.g, Num / Caps / Scroll Lock)
### Combos
Enables simultaneous pressing of key combinations to get another. Handy when there are not enough keys on the keyboard
**Note** Framework is present but disabled during redesign
## Layout
This is the keymap designed for split 3x5 layout, two thumb keys on each side, and dual encoders. Emphasis on:
- Releasing all keys always brings you back to base layer
- Outside thumb keys are encoder clicks
- Keeping certain keys consistent on all layers for better muscle memory
- Numbers and function keys are positioned similarly
- Symbols important for powershell / writing are positioned under stronger fingers
- Game keymap that doesn't require massive game key bind changes. Tested on Resident Evil 4 Remake
Additional keys may be mapped if present. Check each keyboard's `keymap.c` for more information
