Move position of backtick (KC_GRC) / ESC key in keyboard layout. This is exclusively a whitespace change in preparation for replacing KC_GRV with a tap dance command See #5
This value will be used to identify the specific action in the tap_dance_actions array. Note: The tap_dance_actions array is separate from the PROGMEM_keymaps array so this needs to be a new enum set (we can not add this value to our already existing "alt_keycodes") See #5
Define td_backtick_exactly_2_esc() function, which checks the "count" value of the tap dance state (once the repeated tapping has stopped) and based on that count take one of two actions: - if the "count" is exactly 2, tap the ESC key - for any other "count", tap the backtick (KC_GRV) key "count" number of times (e.g. if count is 3, tap the backtick 3 times) See #5
Add the TD_BACKTICK_ESC value we defined to the tap_dance_actions array and associate it with the td_backtick_exactly_2_esc() function we defined. See #5
Map the ESC key to our tap dance value we defined (TD_BACKTICK_ESC), which is associated with the function td_backtick_exactly_2_esc() in the tap_dance_actions array. At this point, we have the following behavior when pressing the ESC key a given number of times: - Once: "`" - Twice: <Esc> - Three times: "```" - Four times: "````" - etc. See #5
