+Alternative Controller for HHKB Pro
+===================================
+I wanted to add some features like vi cursor and mouse keys to my [HHKB][HHKB] but its controller is not programmable and
+firmware source code is not open, of course. This means customizing this keyboard needs to replace original
+controller with programmable one. For this purpose I used PJRC [Teensy++][Teensy] as alternative controller.
+
+[HHKB]: http://www.pfu.fujitsu.com/hhkeyboard/
+[Teensy]: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/
+
+
+My keyboard firmware source tree is here: http://github.com/tmk/tmk_keyboard
+See directory keyboard/hhkb to build firmware for HHKB.
+
+
+##Features
+* Customizable keymap
+* More keymap layers(more Fn keys)
+* Mouse keys
+* USB NKRO
+
+###Pros
+* Without PCB trace cutting, case mod or any destructives
+* Can keep original controller intact
+* Can change all HHKB behaviour as you like
+
+###Cons
+* Void your warranty
+* Lose USB hub function in case of Pro2
+
+##DISCLAIMER
+I'm not a professional of electronics or MCU programming. This may damage your HHKB.
+And my English writing is poor, I'm not sure I can convey my notions accurately.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+##Build Firmware
+You can choose some combination of MCU and USB protocol stack.
+
+### Teensy++(AVR USB family) with [LUFA]
+0. Edit **matrix.c** to use your pin configuration. See doc/HHKB.txt for detail.
+
+1. Edit **keymap.c** to use your favoirte keymap.
+
+2. Edit **Makefile** if you want to use other `MCU` than Teensy++ 2.0.
+
+3. Build firmware binary file:
+ `$ make -f Makefile.lufa`
+
+4. Program MCU with PJRC [Teensy Loader] tool. If you install command line version of the loader just run:
+ `$ make -f Makefile.lufa teensy`
+
+[LUFA]: http://www.fourwalledcubicle.com/LUFA.php
+[Teensy Loader]: http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/loader.html
+
+
+###AVR Mega with [V-USB]
+Follow below if you want to use AVR with V-USB as .
+
+0. Edit **matrix.c** to use your pin configuration. See doc/HHKB.txt for detail.
+
+1. Edit **keymap.c** to use your favoirte keymap.
+
+2. Edit **usbconfig.h** to configure V-USB options.
+
+3. Edit **Makefile.vusb** to define `MCU` and `F_CPU`.
+
+4. Build firmware binary file:
+ `$ make -f Makefile.vusb`
+
+5. Program MCU with AVR programmer like AVRISPmkII. If you already have [USBaspLoader] on MCU just run:
+ `$ make -f Makefile.vusb program`
+
+[V-USB]: http://www.obdev.at/products/vusb/index.html
+[USBaspLoader]: http://www.obdev.at/products/vusb/usbasploader.html
+
+
+###How to Customize Keymap
+Later...
+See **keymap.c**.
+
+
+##Hardware
+
+###Teensy++ installation
+Angled USB mini B adapter is used to install Teensy++ laterally.
+![doc/HHKB_img/teensy_install.jpg]
+
+Bread baord wires are used to connect Teensy++.
