Install [MHV AVR Tools](https://infernoembedded.com/sites/default/files/project/MHV_AVR_Tools_20131101.exe). Disable smatch, but **be sure to leave the option to add the tools to the PATH checked**. -2. Install [MinGW](https://sourceforge.net/projects/mingw/files/Installer/mingw-get-setup.exe/download). During installation, uncheck the option to install a graphical user interface. **DO NOT change the default installation folder.** The scripts depend on the default location. -3. Clone this repository. [This link will download it as a zip file, which you'll need to extract.](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/archive/master.zip) Open the extracted folder in Windows Explorer. -4. Right-click on the 1-setup-path-win batch script, select "Run as administrator", and accept the User Account Control prompt. Press the spacebar to dismiss the success message in the command prompt that pops up. -5. Right-click on the 2-setup-environment-win batch script, select "Run as administrator", and accept the User Account Control prompt. This part may take a couple of minutes, and you'll need to approve a driver installation, but once it finishes, your environment is complete! - - -### Mac - -If you're using homebrew, you can use the following commands: - - brew tap osx-cross/avr - brew install avr-libc - brew install dfu-programmer - -Otherwise, these instructions will work: - -1. Install Xcode from the App Store. -2. Install the Command Line Tools from `Xcode->Preferences->Downloads`. -3. Install [DFU-Programmer][dfu-prog]. - -### Linux -1. Install AVR GCC with your favorite package manager. -2. Install [DFU-Programmer][dfu-prog]. - -Note that, since it will be directly accessing USB hardware, the -`dfu-programmer` program needs to be run as root. - -## Verify Your Installation -1. Clone the following repository: https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware -2. Open a Terminal and `cd` into `qmk_firmware/keyboards/planck` -3. Run `make`. This should output a lot of information about the build process. - -## Using the built-in functions - -Here is a list of some of the functions available from the command line: - -* `make clean`: clean the environment - may be required in-between builds -* `make`: compile the code -* `make KEYMAP=`: compile with the extended keymap file `extended_keymaps/extended_keymap_.c` -* `make dfu`: build and flash the layout to the PCB -* `make dfu-force`: build and force-flash the layout to the PCB (may be require for first flash) - -Generally, the instructions to flash the PCB are as follows: - -1. Make changes to the appropriate keymap file -2. Save the file -3. `make clean` -4. Press the reset button on the PCB/press the key with the `RESET` keycode -5. `make dfu` - use the necessary `KEYMAP=` and/or `COMMON=true` arguments here. - -## Troubleshooting -If you see something like this - - 0 [main] sh 13384 sync_with_child: child 9716(0x178) died before initialization with status code 0xC0000142 - 440 [main] sh 13384 sync_with_child: *** child state waiting for longjmp - /usr/bin/sh: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable - -after running 'make' on Windows than you are encountering a very popular issue with WinAVR on Windows 8.1 and 10. -You can easily fix this problem by replacing msys-1.0.dll in WinAVR/utils/bin with [this one](http://www.madwizard.org/download/electronics/msys-1.0-vista64.zip). -Restart your system and everything should work fine! - - -If you see this - - dfu-programmer atmega32u4 erase - process_begin: CreateProcess(NULL, dfu-programmer atmega32u4 erase, ...) failed. - make (e=2): The system cannot find the file specified. - make: *** [dfu] Error 2 - -when trying to 'make dfu' on Windows you need to copy the dfu-programmer.exe to qmk_firmware/keyboards/planck. - - -## Quantum MK Firmware - -### Keymap - -Unlike the other keymaps, prefixing the keycodes with `KC_` is required. A full list of the keycodes is available [here](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/tmk_core/doc/keycode.txt). For the keycodes available only in the extended keymap, see this [header file](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/quantum/keymap_common.h). - -You can use modifiers with keycodes like this: - - LCTL(KC_C) - -Which will generate Ctrl+c. These are daisy-chainable, meaning you can do things like: - - LCTL(LALT(KC_C)) - -That will generate Ctrl+Alt+c. The entire list of these functions is here: - -* `LCTL()`: Left control -* `LSFT()` / `S()`: Left shift -* `LALT()`: Left alt/opt -* `LGUI()`: Left win/cmd -* `RCTL()`: Right control -* `RSFT()`: Right shift -* `RALT()`: Right alt/opt -* `RGUI()`: Right win/cmd - -`S(KC_1)`-like entries are useful in writing keymaps for the Planck. - -### Other keycodes - -A number of other keycodes have been added that you may find useful: - -* `CM_`: the Colemak equivalent of a key (in place of `KC_`), when using Colemak in software (`CM_O` generates `KC_SCLN`) -* `RESET`: jump to bootloader for flashing (same as press the reset button) -* `BL_STEP`: step through the backlight brightnesses -* `BL_<0-15>`: set backlight brightness to 0-15 -* `BL_DEC`: lower the backlight brightness -* `BL_INC`: raise the backlight brightness -* `BL_TOGG`: toggle the backlight on/off - -### Function layers - -The extended keymap extends the number of function layers from 32 to the near-infinite value of 256. Rather than using `FN` notation (still available, but limited to `FN0`-`FN31`), you can use the `FUNC()` notation. `F()` is a shortcut for this. - -The function actions are unchanged, and you can see the full list of them [here](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/blob/master/tmk_core/common/action_code.h). They are explained in detail [here](keymap.md#2-action). - -### Macros - -Macros have been setup in the `keymaps/keymap_default.c` file so that you can use `M()` to access a macro in the `action_get_macro` section on your keymap. The switch/case structure you see here is required, and is setup for `M(0)` - you'll need to copy and paste the code to look like this (e.g. to support `M(3)`): - - switch(id) { - case 0: - return MACRODOWN(TYPE(KC_A), END); - break; - case 1: - return MACRODOWN(TYPE(KC_B), END); - break; - case 2: - return MACRODOWN(TYPE(KC_C), END); - break; - case 3: - return MACRODOWN(TYPE(KC_D), END); - break; - } - return MACRO_NONE; - -`MACRODOWN()` is a shortcut for `(record->event.pressed ? MACRO(__VA_ARGS__) : MACRO_NONE)` which tells the macro to execute when the key is pressed. Without this, the macro will be executed on both the down and up stroke. - -[cygwin]: https://www.cygwin.com/ -[mingw]: http://www.mingw.org/ -[mhv]: https://infernoembedded.com/products/avr-tools -[winavr]: http://winavr.sourceforge.net/ -[crosspack]: http://www.obdev.at/products/crosspack/index.html -[dfu-prog]: http://dfu-programmer.sourceforge.net/
