97Magic Commands
98--------------
99To see help press `Magic` + `H`.
100
101 `Magic` key bind may be `LShift` + `RShift` in many project, but `Power` key on ADB converter. `Magic` keybind can be vary on each project, check `config.h` in project directory.
102
103Following commands can be also executed with `Magic` + key. In console mode `Magic` keybind is not needed.
104
105 ----- Command Help -----

127### Boot Magic Configuration - Virtual DIP Switch
128Boot Magic are executed during boot up time. Press Magic key below then plug in keyboard cable.
129Note that you must use keys of **Layer 0** as Magic keys. These settings are stored in EEPROM so that retain your configure over power cycles.
130
131To avoid configuring accidentally additive salt key `KC_SPACE` also needs to be pressed along with the following configuration keys. The salt key is configurable in `config.h`. See [common/bootmagic.h](common/bootmagic.h).
132
133#### General
134- Skip reading EEPROM to start with default configuration(`ESC`)
135- Clear configuration stored in EEPROM to reset configuration(`Backspace`)
136
137#### Bootloader
138- Kick up Bootloader(`B`)
139
140#### Debug
141- Debug enable(`D`)
142- Debug matrix enable(`D`+`X`)
143- Debug keyboard enable(`D`+`K`)
144- Debug mouse enable(`D`+`M`)
145
146#### Keymap
147- Swap Control and CapsLock(`Left Control`)
148- Change CapsLock to Control(`Caps Lock`)
149- Swap LeftAlt and Gui(`Left Alt`)
150- Swap RightAlt and Gui(`Right Alt`)
151- Disable Gui(`Left Gui`)
152- Swap Grave and Escape(`Grave`)
153- Swap BackSlash and BackSpace(`Back Slash`)
154
155#### Default Layer
156- Set Default Layer to 0(`0`)
157- Set Default Layer to 1(`1`)
158- Set Default Layer to 2(`2`)
159- Set Default Layer to 3(`3`)
160- Set Default Layer to 4(`4`)
161- Set Default Layer to 5(`5`)
162- Set Default Layer to 6(`6`)
163- Set Default Layer to 7(`7`)
164
165#### Caution
166Unintentional use of this feature will cause user confusion.
167
168TODO: Magic key combination to avoid unintentional press during plug in

170**TBD**

172
173Mechanical Locking support
174--------------------------
175This feature makes it possible for you to use mechanical switch for `CapsLock`, `NumLock` or `ScrollLock`. To enable this feature define these macros in `config.h` and use `KC_LCAP`, `KC_LNUM` or `KC_LSCR` in keymap for locking key instead of normal `KC_CAPS`, `KC_NLCK` or `KC_SLCK`. Resync option tries to keep lock switch state consistent with keyboard LED state.

217Debugging
218--------
219Use PJRC's `hid_listen` to see debug messages. You can use the tool for debug even if firmware use LUFA stack.
220
221You can use xprintf() to display debug info on `hid_listen`, see `common/xprintf.h`.
