As a pre-cursor to having a sort of fancy macro entry, it would be nice to let the users manually entry macros and capabilities as they would directly using KLL.

To prevent user error, each entry should be cross-referenced with the overall KLL configuration to validate if the name exists or is possible.

Capabilities are easy to cross-reference.

For all possible "Result" definitions, see the KLL spec (https://www.overleaf.com/read/zzqbdwqjfwwf)

Hi, @haata still a big fan of yours, appreciate you answer questions! I have a question about Macro keys for the future.

I am interested using ideas from the Swerty keyboard layout. (Tl;dr: US keyboard layout with nordic letters at their preferred locations)

Can the macros be conditional, so that when no key is pressed it will macro hold alt while typing 134 on the numpad to make a å

When the shift key is held it will do cancel the shift key and hold alt while typing 143 to make a Å

Then I can place the regular US buttons behind a layer button.

Would an alt + numpad code macro even be satisfactory?

Yep, this should be already working today.

If I'm understand correctly, you want to "invert" shift in certain situations. I've been working on something like this for Programmer's Dvorak (kiibohd/controller#143)

These may or may not work depending on the OS. The ideal solution is to write a driver for each OS to handle this. But if your OS is setup correctly, then it probably would work.

@haata This is curiously interesting https://terrycain.github.io/razer-drivers/ Keep in mind they are not official even though the web page looks pretty.
