Legacy QMK Files for ARTSEY

How to Build:

Step 1. Set up QMK.

Setup QMK According to the Official Guide.

Make sure you update your QMK if you are using an older version. Features that make ARTSEY possible were added on August, 29, 2021.

https://beta.docs.qmk.fm/tutorial/newbs_getting_started

Step 2. Create or find your keyboard.

Create or find your keyboard as usual for making a QMK keymap.

Step 3. Make sure Combos and Mousekeys are enabled in rules.h of your keyboard.

Add these lines to your rules.mk

COMBO_ENABLE = yes
MOUSEKEYS_ENABLE = yes

Step 4. Copy these files into the /keyboards/your_keyboard/ folder

These files are found in either the /left_hand or /right_hand folder of this repo. Chose the files from the folder that correspond to whether you are using the left- or right-hand layout.

artsey.c  
artsey.h
artsey_basic.def
combos.def
keymap_combo.h
macros.c

Step 5. Create your keymap.

ADD Includes

Include this somewhere near the top of your keymap:

#include "artsey.h"
#include "keymap_combo.h"
#include "artsey.c"

Create Base, Number, Nav, Symbol, Bracket, Mouse, and Custom Layer

The 7 layers are _A_BASE,_A_NUM,_A_NAV,_A_SYM,_A_BRAC,_A_MOU,and _A_CUSTOM. You will need to create these 7 new layers on your keyboard and map the 8 artsey keycodes on each layer. The keycodes are of the form:

A_LAYER_A
A_LAYER_R
A_LAYER_T
A_LAYER_S
A_LAYER_E
A_LAYER_Y
A_LAYER_I
A_LAYER_O

Full Example

Examples keymaps are avilable in each folder. An example keymap for an 8-key right handed board might look like this:

//REPLACE THIS WITH YOUR KEYBOARD.h 
#include "keyboard.h"

//MAKE SURE THESE ARE INCLUDED
#include "artsey.h"
#include "keymap_combo.h"
#include "artsey.c"

const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = {

[_A_BASE] = LAYOUT(A_BASE_A,A_BASE_R,A_BASE_T,A_BASE_S,
A_BASE_E,A_BASE_Y,A_BASE_I,A_BASE_O),

[_A_NUM] = LAYOUT(A_NUM_A,A_NUM_R,A_NUM_T,A_NUM_S,
A_NUM_E,A_NUM_Y,A_NUM_I,A_NUM_O),

[_A_NAV] = LAYOUT(A_NAV_A,A_NAV_R,A_NAV_T,A_NAV_S,
A_NAV_E,A_NAV_Y,A_NAV_I,A_NAV_O),

[_A_SYM] = LAYOUT(A_SYM_A,A_SYM_R,A_SYM_T,A_SYM_S,
A_SYM_E,A_SYM_Y,A_SYM_I,A_SYM_O),

[_A_BRAC] = LAYOUT(A_BRAC_A,A_BRAC_R,A_BRAC_T,A_BRAC_S,
A_BRAC_E,A_BRAC_Y,A_BRAC_I,A_BRAC_O),

[_A_MOU] = LAYOUT(A_MOU_A,A_MOU_R,A_MOU_T,A_MOU_S,
A_MOU_E,A_MOU_Y,A_MOU_I,A_MOU_O),

[_A_CUSTOM] = LAYOUT(A_CUSTOM_A,A_CUSTOM_R,A_CUSTOM_T,A_CUSTOM_S,
A_CUSTOM_E,A_CUSTOM_Y,A_CUSTOM_I,A_CUSTOM_O),


};

For a left handed layout, simply mirror-image the keycodes. For instance, the base layer would look like (see the file in the /left_hand/keymaps/artsey_left/ folder for a full example:

[_A_BASE] = LAYOUT(A_BASE_S,A_BASE_T,A_BASE_R,A_BASE_A,
A_BASE_O,A_BASE_I,A_BASE_Y,A_BASE_E),

Step 6 (Optional). Add some suggested behavior to config.h.

To modify the combo term to your liking.

Add this to your config.h:

#define COMBO_TERM 200

For new users, start with 200. Reduce this as you get faster.

To enable locking the one-shot mods by tapping them three times.

Add this to your config.h:

#define ONESHOT_TAP_TOGGLE 3 

To enable time-out for one-shot mods.

Add this to your config.h:

#define ONESHOT_TIMEOUT 5000 

To improve the behavior of mousekeys.

Add this to your config.h:

#define MOUSEKEY_INTERVAL 12
#define MOUSEKEY_MAX_SPEED 6
#define MOUSEKEY_TIME_TO_MAX 50
#define MOUSEKEY_DELAY 20

To improve the behavior of layer-tap keys.

Add this to your config.h

#define TAPPING_TERM 200
#define PERMISSIVE_HOLD
#define IGNORE_MOD_TAP_INTERRUPT

How to Modify:

All of the ARTSEY combo behavior is defined in macros.c. The non-combo key behavior is defined in artsey.h. These files are autogenerated by generator.R using the comma-separated definition files in artsey_combos.csv and artsey_keycodes.csv. To chang ARTSEY, make modifications to these files, save them, and run generator.R. You can also use an online version of the generator at http://keyboardlist.com
