* `F12` was replaced by an `Fx` key, that activate the **Media** layer as a one-shot layer, and also `Alt` as a one-shot modifier.
### Base layer changes
* The `Media Stop` key is now a tap-dance key, and resets the device for programming on the fourth tap.
### Miscellaneous
* `π` can now be entered with UCIS.
* `🐁` can now be entered with UCIS.
### Tools
* The `tools/layer-notify` tool was removed, it was an example, which I don't use.
#### `tools/hid-commands`
* Now looks at the `DISABLE_APPSEL_START` environment value, and does not display an AppSel notification if it is non-empty.
* Will attempt to re-program the keyboard when receiving a `reflash` command.
* No longer tries to select Emacs 24 on `APPSEL_EMACS`, rather, it goes for any Emacs.
* The `APPSEL_MUSIC` command now includes Kodi in the list too, as the last choice.

* A number of functions, such as the **AppSel** layer, now require the `hid-commands` tool to be running, with the output of `hid_listen` being piped to it.

* The `GUI` key is special, because when I double-tap it, it sends `GUI + w`, which pops up an application selector. It also switches to a one-shot layer, where the number row on the left half turns into app selector macros, for the most common things I usually want to switch to. Otherwise it behaves as on a normal layout.
* The `ESC` key also doubles as a one-shot cancel key: if tapped while any of the one-shot modifiers are in-flight (as in, single-tapped, and not expired yet), it cancels all one-shot modifiers. It also cancels the **Hun** layer, if active. Otherwise it sends the usual keycode.
* The **Media** and **Hun** layer keys are one-shot, the **STENO** key is a toggle.
* The **Fx** key is one-shot, and activates the **Media** layer, along with a one-shot `Alt`.
* When holding the `Tab`/**Arrow** key, the arrow layer activates while the key is held. Tapping the key produces the normal, `Tab` key. Double-tapping it toggles the **Arrow** layer on until a third tap.

Once in the Unicode Symbol Input mode, one is able to type in symbol names, press `Enter` or `Space`, and get the Unicode symbol itself back. When in the mode, a capital `U` is printed first. Once the sequence is finished, all of it is erased by sending enough `Backspace` taps, and the firmware starts the OS-specific unicode input sequence. Then, it looks up the symbol name, and enters the associated code. If it is not found, it will just replay the pressed keycodes.
The currently supported symbols are:
- `snowman`: ☃
- `kiss`: 😙
- `rofl`: 🤣
- `poop`: 💩
For the list of supported symbols, please see the source.
This is an experimental feature, and may or may not work reliably.
