# datagrok's QMK user-space code
## cdeq "comma dot exclamation question"
This is a hack to place `question mark` on `shift-comma` and `exclamation mark` on `shift-period`.
When using an operating system configured for a US/qwerty layout this replaces the angle brackets `<` `>` with `?` `!`. This helps on small keyboards to keep symbols for prose co-located in one layer, and symbols for programming in another.
It's a "hack" because the "proper" way to accomplish this would be to edit the operating system's keymap.
### setup
in your `keymap.c`:
#include "feature_cdeq.h"
bool process_record_user(uint16_t keycode, keyrecord_t *record) {
return process_record_cdeq(keycode, record);
}
in your `rules.mk`,
SRC += feature_cdeq.c

## base layer selector
Defines a keycode `KF_LAYO` to rotate between available default layers.
`Shift`+`KF_LAYO` makes the currently selected one persistent across reboots.
This is useful if you'd like your keyboard to support and toggle between QWERTY, Dvorak, Colemak, Workman, and other layouts while keeping a common arrangement of modifier and function keys.
Since toggling layouts seems like something one does infrequently, I wanted to be able to operate this feature with a single key, instead of one for each layer like planck:default or bootmagic.
### setup
in your `keymap.c`:
#define KF_LAYO SAFE_RANGE
#include "feature_default_layers_selector.h"
const uint8_t highest_base_layer = 4;
bool process_record_user(uint16_t keycode, keyrecord_t *record) {
return \
process_record_save_default_layer(keycode, record) && \
process_record_select_default_layer(keycode, record);
}
in your `rules.mk`,
SRC += feature_default_layers_selector.c
