This is a setup that is very useful for me. It may or may not be for
you. I will use it in conjunction with the A5 overlayed sv_SE layout.
The layout is subject to change (in particular I'm thinking about adding
a macro recording feature), but it have not changed much the past year
or two so you can expect it to be stable enough to learn it.

The most major points:
======================
L0:
---
* Easily accessible F11 key for fullscreening
* Print screen
* Middle mouse button for X-paste
* Improved reachability of meta buttons (LCtrl, LALt, AltGr, LGui etc.)
* Cluster Page Up/Down + Home/End by the right thumb
* Vim-like arrow layout in right bottom row
* Set media layer toggle to right thumb (Enter)
* Set apostrophe on LCtl (putting it next to some other small
characters)
L1:
---
* Full function key layout
* Teensy button
L2:
---
* Improved media buttons layout (close by the jkl; Vim binding)
* Improved layout of emulated mouse buttons
LED behaviour to binary+CAPS
============================
The ErgoDox LEDs on this layout is using the two rightmost LEDs as the
two LSB in a two digit binary number, representing layer 0, 1, 2 and 3.
The leftmost byte/LED indicates CAPS status.
Instead of having all sendstring keycode mappings in the main quantum.c
file, give each one its own file in keymap_extras that can be #included
in a user's keymap. If one is included, it will define the appropriate
lookup tables and overwrite the weak definitions in quantum.c.
(Including more than one sendstring definition will fail at compile
time.)
Update @rai-suta's test keymap to match, as well as the documentation.
Refactor new-ish JIS_KEYCODE send_string implementation with existing
send_string
Reshuffle JIS in line with other alternative keycodes for sendstring,
and make them all accessible via compile-time options
Add a separate function to allow sending a string with a delay.
* Move Space Caded Parentheses to own layer
The space cadet parentheses where too much distracting. Therefore they are now on the function layer. I also added two more layers for also having angle brackets and curly braces on the shift keys forr better access.
Also updated the README
* Fixed SHIFT+Function key conflict
* Removed Angle Bracket and Curly Bracket layers, as they don't work corrrectly
*NOTE:* it might still be desirable to set the software layout to sv_SE in your
OS.
Swedish (sv_SE) Qwerty layout for ErgoDox, based on the Default configuration
I have tried making this as close of a match I could between the [default
ErgoDox EZ configuration](https://ergodox-ez.com/pages/our-firmware) and a
standard Swedish Qwerty layout.
Notable differences from default:
=================================
* There are three special character buttons (acute accent, circumflex/tilde and
apostrophe/asterisk) that don't have any buttons to map to naturally. I've put
these at other places:
* Acute accent (´) can be found in the lower left corner, conveniently
placed to reach for making an é.
* Apostrophe (') was put in the lower left corner, close to acute accent.
* Circumflex (^) and asterisk (*) was placed in the lower right corner.
* Tilde (~) and diaeresis (¨) I couldn't find a good place for, so I left
those out. I could only get the buttons to produce a single one of the
characters. How can I get it to work properly?
* The Alt button on right thumb was exchanged for AltGr (RAlt).
* I changed the backslash in the numpad (layer 1) for a minus. Thought it was
more sensible.
* I didn't find a good place for the "<>|" button, so that one was left out.
That is a problem that really needs to be resolved. Pipe can be found on layer
one, however.
* Added orthodox
* Modified readme
* Modified readme
* Modified readme
* Updated makefile
* Fixed keymap issues
* Modified serial communications to allow for over 8 columns
* Fixed sizeof command
* Fixed some typing issues
* Testing issue #1191 (n-column split i2c slave)
Based on initial OrthoDox (serial) config by @reddragond and others,
this attempts to add TWI (I2C) support.
Relevant: <https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/issues/1191>
- per @ahtn recommendation, using memcpy for moving slave matrix
into slave sending buffer
- slave buffer has been enlarged using sizeof(matrix_row_t)
- note: i2c.h now includes matrix.h
- note: matrix.c includes <string.h>
* Added i2c keymap - right col still not working
* orthodox: re-added i2c keymap, based on serial
* orthodox / issue #1191: trying 9-bit serial
- orthodox serial protocol now sends 9 bits per row, instead of 16.
Technically it's using MATRIX_COLS, so it might work generically.
- ROW_MASK is #defined in serial.c to truncate the checksums to prevent
overflows causing false errors. This macro should be renamed if it's
kept.
* Revert "Fixed sizeof command"
This reverts commit f62a5b9939d6a9c0e442ec403de00c14431a55f9.
Changes had been made to the lets_split serial driver for testing which
mirrored the multi-byte-row changes made to support the orthodox. As the
lets_split does not require these changes, and new improvements had
been added to the orthodox port only, this commit reverts them.
Because the new code could potentially reduce latency over the serial
transport, it may be desirable to re-add in the future, by backporting
the current working orthodox code.
* orthodox: default serial keymap improvements
- formatting has been improved
- a few keys have been shifted, mainly in Raise and Lower layers,
to be more like the default Planck layout
- Now available: F12, Home, End, PgUp, PgDn, Media-Next, Media-Play
Still To Do:
- duplicate for TWI
- Alt modifier
- GUI modifier
* orthodox: failed attempt at 16b/row TWI
- duplicated updated serial keymap for "i2c"
- removed string.h/memcpy, instead
- hardcoded copying of six bytes per update
- still doesn't work; master reports interconnect errors on txled
* orthodox: adjusted default keymap
- this is applied to both 'serial' and 'i2c' keymaps
- Alt and GUI have been added, as they were missing
- comma and period persist across more layers; Home/PgUp and End/PgDn
have been moved slightly to accommodate
* orthodox: revert TWI support to minimum to debug
- disabled ssd1306 and hardware locking in build configuration
- increased TWI buffer from 0x10 to 0x20 bytes
- decreased TWI clock from 400000 to 100000
- removed hardcoded TWI multi-byte sending/receiving
An 'i2c' build of this was found to work on a rev1 Orthodox, although
slave-side col9 was understandably not working. When testing-time
permits, features will be gradually re-enabled towards getting the full
matrix supported over TWI.
* orthodox: TWI (i2c) is working, kludge for col9
The TWI interconnect ("i2c" in directories and build config) is now
working for the Orthodox, including the slave half's column #9.
This is intended as an interim solution, as it's a kludge, not a fix.
Rather than a working multi-byte implementation, the two col9 keys'
bits are packed-into and unpacked-from the two unused bits in row1.
Furthermore, the TWI clock constant has been reduced to 100000 from
400000, as testing revealed the higher value just didn't work.
Testing also found that (with this kludge) increasing the TWI buffer
was not necessary.
This commit leaves many commented-out lines in matrix.c from previous
testing, which will be removed in a future commit once the
interconnects' multi-byte problems have been debugged more thoroughly.
* orthodox: updated readme.md
The readme for the Orthodox now includes a description of the keyboard,
allusions to its author and availability, a linked photo, and links to
the evolving build guide and the current keymap on KLE.
This update has been prepared with /u/Deductivemonkee's assistance.
Added basic description of the keyboard and some build and configuration
instructions.
Also moved the RGB underlight modification instructions to the readme.
The previous default configuration and keymap was made for a Phantom
modified with RGB underlight.
This commit makes the default more in line with the "official"
configurations provided by the PCB.
The previous default have been moved to a separate keymap named
`rgbmod`. It has also been updated to better match the template keymap.
It's a little unclear what the style guidelines are for the QMK project.
But I figured that I should at least keep the indentation consistent
within the KMAC part.
Previously KEYMAP referred to the KEYMAP_ARROW layout and had 45 keys. It makes
more sense for the default keymap to be the 44 key layout, as is implied by the
name.
Additionally keymaps for all other known layouts have been added:
KEYMAP - base layout
KEYMAP_ARROW - additional key in bottom right
KEYMAP_COMMAND - additional key in bottom left
KEYMAP_ARROW_COMMAND - combination of KEYMAP_ARROW and KEYMAP_COMMAND

Replacement controller for Filco Majestouch 2 104 key keyboard. BE
advises code will also work with the Black Petal controller - I don't
have one to test with. Tests working perfectly on my Filco.
Empirically, waiting for N consecutive identical scans as a debouncing
strategy doesn't work very well for the ErgoDox EZ where scans are very
slow compared to most keyboards. Instead, debounce the signals by
eagerly reporting a change as soon as one scan observes it, but then
ignoring further changes from that key for the next N scans.
This is implemented by keeping an extra matrix of uint8 countdowns, such
that only keys whose countdown is currently zero are eligible to change.
When we do observe a change, we bump that key's countdown to DEBOUNCE.
During each scan, every nonzero countdown is decremented.
With this approach to debouncing, much higher debounce constants are
tolerable, because latency does not increase with the constant, and
debounce countdowns on one key do not interfere with events on other
keys. The only negative effect of increasing the constant is that the
minimum duration of a keypress increases. Perhaps I'm just extremely
unlucky w.r.t. key switch quality, but I saw occasional bounces even
with DEBOUNCE=10; with 15, I've seen none so far. That's around 47ms,
which seems like an absolutely insane amount of time for a key to be
bouncy, but at least it works.
Using only one layer, and activating it with two keys at the moment.
As with previous comments, this isn't final, but is a good starting point for a one-handed keyboard, half a Planck-like ortholinear keyboard, or a sample to show a layout with a function layer.
