Mods Customisations and Changes about miryoku HOT 6 OPEN

I'm new to the community (this weekend), and I don't know if there is a better place to put this (like in discussions), but I wanted to share my workaround for editing the home row mod order after being redirected from this reddit post and one of the discussions in this repo. This modification was done in my QMK installation since I prefer GASC to GACS (using colemak-dh), which isn't generally/easily OS configurable.

Notes:

• I understand that it would be better to set up the babel repository and use tangled, but I have never used emacs before and the setup cost seemed high.
• I performed these changes against the babel files so that all keyboards I create
• I have not tried these modifications in ZMK, but it looks like the same commands should work if the sed strings are tweaked.
• These commands rely on the default ordering of the home row mods, but can easily be modified to account for existing changes in the *layer_alternatives.h file.
• These commands are not idempotent and may result in a different/ random state if executed multiple times without a reset.
• These commands appear to be repeatable, and should be able to be re-applied after accepting a force-update from upstream.

# get to the qmk installation root
cd && qmk cd

# set each of the mods to a temporary value and repopulate with the mods in the preferred order
sed -e 's/LGUI/TMP0/g' -e 's/LALT/TMP1/g' -e 's/LCTL/TMP2/g' -e 's/LSFT/TMP3/g' \
-e 's/TMP0/LGUI/g' \
-e 's/TMP1/LALT/g' \
-e 's/TMP2/LSFT/g' \
-e 's/TMP3/LCTL/g' \

# verify the results are what you expected. If you're in a clean git state, you can copy first and use git diff instead
diff users/manna-harbour_miryoku/miryoku_babel/miryoku_layer_alternatives.h  miryoku_layer_alternatives_temp.h | less

# move the results over top of the original
mv miryoku_layer_alternatives_temp.h users/manna-harbour_miryoku/miryoku_babel/miryoku_layer_alternatives.h

# if something goes wrong, revert to "master" version. You can use a specific commit or "HEAD" instead
git checkout master -- users/manna-harbour_miryoku/miryoku_babel/miryoku_layer_alternatives.h

How to use magic keycode to achieve Ctrl/Gui swap? I was thinking something similar to how there is a layer lock now on double tap?

@damirda It's not built-in at the moment, but you can use #85 to substitute a custom layer and add e.g. CG_TOGG. If you can't find somewhere to put it, it could be done as a key override or a tap dance.

Ctrl / Gui swap for Mac might not be necessary as per keyboard mod remapping is supported in macOS: https://support.apple.com/en-az/guide/mac-help/mchlp1011/mac

An additional pre-swapped Mac clipboard option might be necessary.

I am using macOS, and I swapped control and command in macOS for my keyboard, as you suggested. But then I found that the clipboard commands no longer worked (because U_UNDO sent control+z rather than command+z, etc.). So I added the following, and now it works:

• in manna-harbour_miryoku.h I defined a new clipboard option "MIRYOKU_CLIPBOARD_MACSWAP"

  

• in custom_rules.mk I specified to use it:

  MIRYOKU_CLIPBOARD=MACSWAP

It took me a little while to figure out how to do that, so I'm posting it here in case it's helpful for others. Perhaps this clipboard option could be included by default? I would imagine other mac users want to do similarly.

Ctrl / Gui swap is also supported in QMK with magic keycodes.

Consider:

• Supporting right mods on bottom row: #262 (comment).
• Option to remove HRM and add bottom row mods.
• Moving layer lock to inner index column.
