 114 Build Firmware and Program Controller
 115 -------------------------------------
 116 See [doc/build.md](tmk_core/doc/build.md), or the README in the particular keyboard/* folder.
 117

 125
 126 Magic Commands
 127 --------------
 128 To see help press `Magic` + `H`.
 129
 130 `Magic` key combination is `LShift` + `RShift` in many project, but `Power` key on ADB converter.
 131 `Magic` keybind can be vary on each project, check `config.h` in project directory.
 132
 133 Following commands can be also executed with `Magic` + key. In console mode `Magic` keybind is not needed.
 134
 135     ----- Command Help -----

 157 Boot Magic Configuration - Virtual DIP Switch
 158 ---------------------------------------------
 159 Boot Magic are executed during boot up time. Press Magic key below then plug in keyboard cable.
 160 Note 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.
 161
 162 To 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).
 163
 164 #### General
 165 - Skip reading EEPROM to start with default configuration(`ESC`)
 166 - Clear configuration stored in EEPROM to reset configuration(`Backspace`)
 167
 168 #### Bootloader
 169 - Kick up Bootloader(`B`)
 170
 171 #### Debug
 172 - Debug enable(`D`)
 173 - Debug matrix enable(`D`+`X`)
 174 - Debug keyboard enable(`D`+`K`)
 175 - Debug mouse enable(`D`+`M`)
 176
 177 #### Keymap
 178 - Swap Control and CapsLock(`Left Control`)
 179 - Change CapsLock to Control(`Caps Lock`)
 180 - Swap LeftAlt and Gui(`Left Alt`)
 181 - Swap RightAlt and Gui(`Right Alt`)
 182 - Disable Gui(`Left Gui`)
 183 - Swap Grave and Escape(`Grave`)
 184 - Swap BackSlash and BackSpace(`Back Slash`)
 185 - Enable NKRO on boot(`N`)
 186
 187 #### Default Layer
 188 - Set Default Layer to 0(`0`)
 189 - Set Default Layer to 1(`1`)
 190 - Set Default Layer to 2(`2`)
 191 - Set Default Layer to 3(`3`)
 192 - Set Default Layer to 4(`4`)
 193 - Set Default Layer to 5(`5`)
 194 - Set Default Layer to 6(`6`)
 195 - Set Default Layer to 7(`7`)

 199 Mechanical Locking support
 200 --------------------------
 201 This feature makes it possible for you to use mechanical locking switch for `CapsLock`, `NumLock`
 202 or `ScrollLock`. To enable this feature define these macros in `config.h` and use `KC_LCAP`, `KC_LN
 203 UM` or `KC_LSCR` in keymap for locking key instead of normal `KC_CAPS`, `KC_NLCK` or `KC_SLCK`. Res
 204 ync option tries to keep switch state consistent with keyboard LED state.

 206     #define LOCKING_SUPPORT_ENABLE
 207     #define LOCKING_RESYNC_ENABLE

 212 -----------------------
 213 **TBD**
 214
 215
 216
 217 Debugging
 218 --------
 219 Use PJRC's `hid_listen` to see debug messages. You can use the tool for debug even if firmware use LUFA stack.
 220
 221 You can use xprintf() to display debug info on `hid_listen`, see `tmk_core/common/xprintf.h`.
