+* I'm not sure what the Magic + H does.
+ Is this a menu that will pop up regardless of what platform and program is open? 
+
+ Yes, this is sort of debugging.
+ Use PJRC's [hid_listen](https://www.pjrc.com/teensy/hid_listen.html) to see debug messages.
+
+# TMK/Ergodox specific
+
+* I would like to configure my leds to indicate the active layer.
+ I read that can be done, but I haven't seen an example for this firmware.
+ Can someone please post an example or a link?
+
+ TMK for Ergodox have support for seven (!) led's:
+ - three on right
+ - three on left (see http://geekhack.org/index.php?topic=22780.msg873819#msg873819 for more details)
+ - Teensy onboard led as well
+
+ Any of these leds can be used as layer indicator or NumLock/CapsLock/ScrollLock led.
+
+ [Here is example](https://github.com/cub-uanic/tmk_keyboard/blob/cub_layout/keyboard/ergodox/matrix.c#L121-167)
+ how you can assign some meaning to each led.
+ In this code only left leds are used to show layers, but you can
+ [change `led_set()`](https://github.com/cub-uanic/tmk_keyboard/blob/cub_layout/keyboard/ergodox/led.c)
+ and do anything you want with all leds.

-Things TO-DO
-============
-- Flash NumLock led only when "numpad" layer is active
-- Command (in terms of IS_COMMAND) to switch to no-leds mode
-- Increase count of ACTION keys
-- Fix command_state() onboard led: it should flash only when kbd in some specific mode (CONSOLE || MOUSE)
-- ergodox_blink_all_leds() should save current state of leds, and restore after blink. initial state of all leds == off
-- add support for pseudo-backlight (reversed LEDs) + docs/photo
-- command to debug all LEDs (on/off/blink)
-- proper (in-core) implementation of DEBUG_MATRIX_SCAN_RATE (non-Ergodox specific)
-- proper (in-core) support for per-layer fn_actions[]
