This is to be used with [Plover](http://www.openstenoproject.org/plover/), nothing really fancy here. The **STENO** key toggles the layer on and off, and sends the toggle command to Plover too.

On keypress, strings of romaji characters are output by the keyboard using macros, and these simulate the input of individual keys on a latin keyboard.
Layer 1 is the JP layer. Keys on this layer correspond to singleton keys, or keys on the bottom row where a key is shared. For example, pressing the "ふ や" key outputs `ふ` (or "fu").
# Practical keymap for Planck Ortholinear 40% Mechanical Keyboard
A practical keymap that emulates standard QWERTY keyboard for Planck. Once you get comfortable with this keymap, you may fork and customize it for your own needs.

* `ALT` and `GUI` are reversed compared to the normal US layout. I will also be using my Planck on my mac, and that's the standard in the Apple ecosystem. I may add a special compiler flag in the future to swap the two.
* The DVORAK `Z` key is to the right of the `S` key instead of under it as part of a compromise I made to keep the ARROW keys available on the default layer. I prioritize the ARROW keys, so the DVORAK layout is the one to suffer.
* I also support the little tones that the default Planck layout features, identical to them too, (minus those for layouts I don't support). To enable it, open the `Makefile` and set `AUDIO_ENABLE = yes`.
Not all languages are supported by this layout. Linux also offers the "US International Alternative" layout,
which contains more dead keys to input pretty much every diacritic character in a language using latin letters. More information can be found [here](http://web.archive.org/web/20160818101234/http://dry.sailingissues.com/us-international-keyboard-layout.html).

Also, it's worth noting that my Minivan is one with the "arrows" layout, which has a 45th key, so I had to define a new KEYMAP_TV45 macro in config.h. In spite of this, the 45-key Minivan is still technically considered a "TV44" as far as I know.
