Minifan layout

Compiled for: Colemak

This file details the compile version #define BASE_COLEMAK__DEF_BASE, BASE_COLEMAK__ALT_BASE. This is a Colemak layout.

Control follows Unix logic here (left/center), not Colemak Backspace.

 ₁) Dual hold for _DRA, single hold for _..._NSY. Marked by: ^--…--^

 ₃) 'South paw' hardware configuration. Configurable, default shown.
 ₄) 'Arrow' hardware configuration  Configurable, default shown.
 ₃ ₄) There are two more optional hardware keys, to make it easier to compile for
      a 12x12x12x11 or 12x12x12x12 layouts.
 ₅) Left Shift when pressed with another key. Medium long: to toggle _PAD. Long: toggle _MOV.
 ₆) Right shift when pressed with another key. medium long: to toggle _FUN. Long: toggle _RAR.

Remarks: The left modifiers have a slight delay in combination with an outside pointer device (mouse, stylus). It seems this will be difficult to fix, because it is spread over two devices. To avoid the ±0.2 second delay, activate a layer where the modifiers are direct (_PAD), using the layer toggle on left shift.

The two keys with ';' (Del;_ACC, Right;_RAR) do not auto-repeat on double tap, like QMK normal layer-tap keys. There is an uncluttered Delete on _PAD, an uncluttered Right arrow on the _MOV layer.

Holding both _DEF_NSY keys left and right of the "split space bar" (enter, space) results in layer _DRA.

Holding either one of the just above mentioned _DEF_NSY layer keys (<3 and 3>), with the _ACC layer key (on <2) results in layer _BON.


 Layer _..._NSY (Numbers and SYmbols). (Same as Qwerty numbers layer.)
