* Left `Win` is macro-board layer selection. Latching macro modifiers and function keys.
* Left `Alt` is navigation layer select. You **MUST** be in this mode for **BQN**.
* Basically `Fn`+ a left modifier on the bottom row changes the main layer or enters a CYAN shift except when in **BQN** BLUE mode.
* In CYAN shift mode you may release the `Fn` key while holding the respective CYAN modifier.
* In CYAN shift mode you may release the `Fn` key while keeping hold of the respective CYAN modifier.
* Scroll lock via caps lock.
* Backslash makes insert.
* Backspace makes delete.
* Backtick makes escape.
* **BQN** MAGENTA `Fn` is a locking mode for a different character Unicode layer.
## ANSI Layer (RED Layer)
* Right `Ctrl` is left of the `Fn` shift key as always.

* Period is scroll down.
* Enter, tab and escape (on backtick) are themselves.
* Backspace does a delete.
* Backslash is keyboard RESET.
* Backtick is keyboard RESET, as this allows backtick to be held for entering the bootloader.
* Backslash is `SysReq`.
* Tab allows applying an `Alt` modifier, as `Alt` is used to hold the CYAN shift.
* The brackets are home and end.
* Minus and equals are buttons 4 and 5 (standard mice don't have this).
* Semicolon is mouse button 3 (scroll button).
* Apostrophe is mouse button 2.
* All the alpha and number keys are multi-character UTF-8 (for more flexible Unicode).
* Set up for `Shift` and `Ctrl` modifiers (can be extended to `Alt` and `Win`).
* Examples:
* Sporadic groups on shift alphas.
* Families on unshifted and shifted numbers plus null set.
* The maths can get complicated as these are the "44 prime kinds" of all simple symmetry groups (plus the irregular honorary sporadic "Tits Group"). I included the zero null set symbol too.
### **BQN** Layer (BLUE Layer Within BQN Specification)
* **BQN** unshifted and shifted.
* Backspace exits back to navigation GREEN mode.
* The bottom row of modifiers emit some strange keys which could be detected amongst the automatic Unicode modifiers.

### Unicode Shift Layer (`Fn` After `\`**BQN** Prefix MAGENTA Shift)
* All the alpha keys form Unicode characters (definable in code).
* Backspace to exit **BQN** if you accidentally enter a backslash.
* Backspace works to remove characters.
* Enter works as expected to end a paragraph.
* All the alphanumeric keys form Unicode characters (definable in code).
* Tap `Fn` to exit if you accidentally enter this MAGENTA locked mode.
* Cursor block works as expected to navigate text.
* All other punctuation has defined Unicode in code too.
* Modifier keys don't change layers except `Fn` which releases the MAGENTA shift.
* Not quite as flexible as the `Mouse Shift Layer` as only single Unicode code points can be used.
* But as it is locking, an alternate alphabet can be placed on the keys.
* The bottom row of modifiers emit some strange keys which could be detected amongst the automatic Unicode modifiers. This also true for `Shift` on this layer.
* Tab does a tab and not `Ctrl`+`Alt`+`Del`, as this mode is designed for hours of fun as long as the `Fn` adult button is not pushed. Just the kind of thing for a novel.
