This directory holds the code that's the same for every keyboard I use in QMK, which is currently:

Macro Features and Custom Keycodes
VRSN
Outputs a string that tells me the Git commit from which my flashed firmware was built. Looks something like:
kc60:noroadsleft # @ 0.6.326-6-gae6d7b-dirty
Git Macros
Some frequently used Git commands.
Keycode | Output | Output with Shift |
---|---|---|
G_PUSH |
git push origin |
git push origin |
G_FTCH |
git fetch upstream |
git pull upstream |
G_BRCH |
master |
$(git branch-name) |
G_PWD |
$( pwd | sed -e 's;^.*/keyboards/;;' -e 's;/;_;g') |
$( pwd | sed -e 's;^.*/keyboards/;;' -e 's;/;_;g') |
$(git branch-name)
is an alias for git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD
, which normally returns the name of the current branch.
The G_PWD
macro outputs a shell expansion that returns the current working directory in relation to qmk_firmware/keyboards/
, and with the slashes replaced with underscores. I do a lot of keyboard refactoring in QMK, and this is a string I use regularly.
Customized Keycodes
I used to have a boolean variable that changed the functionality of these keycodes, but I no longer work in the environment that I wrote the functionality for, so I took it out. The keycodes still exist because all my keymap.c
files reference the custom keycodes I defined.
Keycode | Action |
---|---|
M_SALL |
Ctrl+A |
M_UNDO |
Ctrl+Z |
M_CUT |
Ctrl+X |
M_COPY |
Ctrl+C |
M_PASTE |
Ctrl+V |
Emulated Non-US Backslash
Sometimes I type in languages from countries that use ISO layout, but my keyboards are all ANSI layout, so I have one key fewer than necessary.
This macro simulates the Non-US Backslash key if I hold Right Alt and tap the key to the right of Left Shift.
Requires defining ANSI_NUBS_ROW
and ANSI_NUBS_COL
in config.h
at the keymap level.1
Emulated Numeric Keypad
If I hold the Right Alt key, the number row (KC_1
through KC_0
) will output numpad keycodes instead of number row keycodes, enabling quicker access to characters like ™ and °.
Emulated Extended Function Keys
Similar to the emulated numpad, if I hold the Right Alt key with the Fn key, the function row (KC_F1
through KC_F12
) will output keycodes KC_F13
throught KC_F24
.
