9-------
10#### 2016/02/10
11core: flabbergast's Chibios protocol was merged from <https://github.com/flabbergast/tmk_keyboard/tree/chibios> (@72b1668). See [tmk_core/protocol/chibios/README.md](tmk_core/protocol/chibios/README.md). Chibios protocol supports Cortex-M such as STM32 and Kinetis.

13#### 2015/04/22
14Core library was separated to other branch `core`. <https://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard/tree/core>
15
16In `Makefile` you need to set `TMK_DIR` to indicate core library location now.

18 TMK_DIR = ../../tmk_core

130Magic Commands
131--------------
132To see help press `Magic` + `H`.
133
134`Magic` key combination is `LShift` + `RShift` in many project, but `Power` key on ADB converter.
135`Magic` keybind can be vary on each project, check `config.h` in project directory.
136
137Following commands can be also executed with `Magic` + key. In console mode `Magic` keybind is not needed.
138
139 ----- Command Help -----
140 c: enter console mode
141 d: toggle debug enable
142 x: toggle matrix debug
143 k: toggle keyboard debug

161Boot Magic Configuration - Virtual DIP Switch
162---------------------------------------------
163Boot Magic are executed during boot up time. Press Magic key below then plug in keyboard cable.
164Note 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.
165
166To 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 [tmk_core/common/bootmagic.h](tmk_core/common/bootmagic.h).
167
168#### General
169- Skip reading EEPROM to start with default configuration(`ESC`)
170- Clear configuration stored in EEPROM to reset configuration(`Backspace`)
171
172#### Bootloader
173- Kick up Bootloader(`B`)
174
175#### Debug
176- Debug enable(`D`)
177- Debug matrix enable(`D`+`X`)
178- Debug keyboard enable(`D`+`K`)
179- Debug mouse enable(`D`+`M`)
180
181#### Keymap
182- Swap Control and CapsLock(`Left Control`)
183- Change CapsLock to Control(`Caps Lock`)
184- Swap LeftAlt and Gui(`Left Alt`)
185- Swap RightAlt and Gui(`Right Alt`)
186- Disable Gui(`Left Gui`)
187- Swap Grave and Escape(`Grave`)
188- Swap BackSlash and BackSpace(`Back Slash`)
189- Enable NKRO on boot(`N`)
190
191#### Default Layer
192- Set Default Layer to 0(`0`)
193- Set Default Layer to 1(`1`)
194- Set Default Layer to 2(`2`)
195- Set Default Layer to 3(`3`)
196- Set Default Layer to 4(`4`)
197- Set Default Layer to 5(`5`)
198- Set Default Layer to 6(`6`)
199- Set Default Layer to 7(`7`)

203Mechanical Locking support
204--------------------------
205This feature makes it possible for you to use mechanical locking switch for `CapsLock`, `NumLock`
206or `ScrollLock`. To enable this feature define these macros in `config.h` and use `KC_LCAP`, `KC_LN
207UM` or `KC_LSCR` in keymap for locking key instead of normal `KC_CAPS`, `KC_NLCK` or `KC_SLCK`. Res
208ync option tries to keep switch state consistent with keyboard LED state.

221Debugging
222--------
223Use PJRC's `hid_listen` to see debug messages. You can use the tool for debug even if firmware use LUFA stack.
224
225You can use xprintf() to display debug info on `hid_listen`, see `tmk_core/common/xprintf.h`.
