several improvements for mitosis:datagrok (#1960)
* mitosis/datagrok: reduce features from rules.mk * mitosis/datagrok: make both layer keys neighbor shift * mitosis/datagrok: (no-op) tweak some comments * mitosis/datagrok: set baudrate to 250k This requires a corresponding change to the mitosis wireless firmware: https://github.com/reversebias/mitosis/pull/10 * mitosis/datagrok: move design description from code comment to a readme * mitosis/datagrok: new layout, new shifted keys, efficient LED code This is experimental, but compiles and seems to work correctly. * mitosis/datagrok: whoops, move readme.md * mitosis/datagrok: a minor layout improvement simplifies custom-shifted code instead of [, .] [? !], using [, ?] [. !] greatly simplifies the code needed to perform the shifted-key switching. (And keeps , and . on the same keys that they are under qwerty.) also: layout improvements for symbols * mitosis/datagrok: make my code conform to QMK style guidelines * mitosis/datagrok: TODO note for layout table in README * mitosis/datagrok: remove led_set_user until i figure out other changes need to see if the corresponding changes needed in the keyboard-level code is okay. * mitosis/datagrok: simpler layer indicator * mitosis/datagrok: undo change to keyboard baud; make it in my layout dir. * mitosis/datagrok: apply same punctuation hack to qwerty layer * mitosis/datagrok: enable qwerty layer toggle * mitosis/datagrok: update readmepull/1966/head

# a layout for the Mitosis
|
||||
|
||||
- Emphasis on momentary modifiers, all usable from either hand, arranged
|
||||
symmetrically, but distinguishable left/right by the OS. Shift, Fn1
|
||||
("Lower"), Fn2 ("Raise"), Super ("Windows"), Meta ("Alt"), Hyper.
|
||||
|
||||
- Fn1 and Fn2 are used to momentary-enable (like a shift key) one of three layers:
|
||||
|
||||
- Fn1 (Red): Symbols layer
|
||||
- Fn2 (Blue): Numbers layer
|
||||
- Both: Functions layer
|
||||
|
||||
- The base layer is a slight variant of [Workman][]. QWERTY may be toggled-on.
|
||||
|
||||
- Paired programming symbols (braces, brackets, parentheses) are arranged
|
||||
symmetrically in the symbols layer. `?` and `!` are moved to take the place
|
||||
of `<` and `>`.
|
||||
|
||||
- No OS keymap modification required.
|
||||
|
||||
## Design notes
|
||||
|
||||
- **I use an 8Mhz Pro Micro.** If you want to use this keymap with the standard
|
||||
16Mhz Pro Micro specified in the Mitosis design:
|
||||
|
||||
- Remove the lines in `rules.mk` mentioning `F_CPU` and `F_USB`.
|
||||
- Remove the lines in `config.h` mentioning `SERIAL_UART_BAUD`.
|
||||
|
||||
- I'm learning a new key placement, so might as well go all out and use an
|
||||
optimal non-QWERTY layout.
|
||||
|
||||
- I like the way Workman feels and some of its advantages over Colemak.
|
||||
Unfortunately, it was designed using a weighting system based on a standard
|
||||
column-staggered keyboard so is probably not as optimal as one could achieve
|
||||
on an ergonomic board like the Mitosis.
|
||||
|
||||
- Arrows in the home position (on a layer). Mod+Arrows = PgUp/PgDn/Home/End,
|
||||
which is intuitive for me
|
||||
|
||||
### Abandoned ideas
|
||||
|
||||
- ~~"Since QWERTY and Workman keep angle brackets together, place other
|
||||
enclosing symbols on the same keys. This informs the numbers placement,
|
||||
which informs the function-key placement."~~
|
||||
|
||||
- I tried this and it was bad. I don't like having to pick the right
|
||||
modifier to get the right flavor of bracket. Instead, now, one modifier
|
||||
activates a symbols layer where all brackets are easily accessible.
|
||||
|
||||
- Space/Enter to the left of layer select for Enter doesn't work well; I always
|
||||
trigger space first.
|
||||
|
||||
- I used to have Blue layer on ring finger, but that was too hard to use in
|
||||
conjunction with shift.
|
||||
|
||||
## To do
|
||||
|
||||
- Improve LED indications (may require modding bluetooth firmware):
|
||||
- Is any board nonresponsive (which one?)
|
||||
- Does either board have a low battery?
|
||||
- Add Insert, PrintScr, Pause/Break
|
||||
- Make QWERTY base layer for people who customize layout in software? Store
|
||||
default base layer in eeprom?
|
||||
- See if the henkans placement is at all useful for Japanese speakers, or abuse
|
||||
different keysyms
|
||||
- Mod a speaker onto my receiver and enable tones
|
||||
- Implement "layer lock" key
|
||||
- Improve tri-layer behavior
