 This allows you to send unicode symbols via `UC(<unicode>)` in your keymap. Only codes up to 0x7FFF are currently supported.

+This allows sending unicode symbols using `X(<unicode>)` in your keymap. Codes
+up to 0xFFFFFFFF are supported, including emojis. You will need to maintain
+a separate mapping table in your keymap file.

+Known limitations:
+- Under Mac OS, only codes up to 0xFFFF are supported.
+- Under Linux ibus, only codes up to 0xFFFFF are supported (but anything important is still under this limit for now).

+Characters out of range supported by the OS will be ignored.

 This allows you to interface with a Bluefruit EZ-key to send keycodes wirelessly. It uses the D2 and D3 pins.

 `TG(layer)` - toggles a layer on or off. As with `MO()`, you should set this key as `KC_TRNS` in the destination layer so that tapping it again actually toggles back to the original layer. Only works upwards in the layer stack.
 
+`TO(layer)` - Goes to a layer. This code is special, because it lets you go either up or down the stack -- just goes directly to the layer you want. So while other codes only let you go _up_ the stack (from layer 0 to layer 3, for example), `TO(2)` is going to get you to layer 2, no matter where you activate it from -- even if you're currently on layer 5. This gets activated on keydown (as soon as the key is pressed).

 ## Unicode support
 
-You can currently send 4 hex digits with your OS-specific modifier key (RALT for OSX with the "Unicode Hex Input" layout) - this is currently limited to supporting one OS at a time, and requires a recompile for switching. 8 digit hex codes are being worked on. The keycode function is `UC(n)`, where *n* is a 4 digit hexidecimal. Enable from the Makefile.
