# Minifan layout

Compiled for: Dvorak² 
=====================

This file details the compile version `#define BASE_DVORAK_DESCRAMBLE__ALT_BASE`
which has a special version of Dvorak so that you can type Dvorak on a computer
*already* set to do Dvorak layout re-mapping.

This can be useful on for example a laptop, for which the build-in
keyboard should to be in Dvorak.

          a 12x12x12x11 or 12x12x12x12 layouts.
     ₅) Left Shift when pressed with another key. Medium long: to toggle _PAD. Long: toggle _MOV.

     This layer input results in the same as normal Dvorak if computer side Dvorak remapping is occuring.

Special feature: 'Descramble' mode
==================================

![Minivan descramble Dvorak](http://socialism.nl/misc/minivan/minivan_descramble.jpg)

  This is an option to take care of typing normally on a computer already
  set to Dvorak ('descramble' mode.)  

  Activation: go to `_RAR` layer, than touch what is space bar on the BASE layer
  (the key just right from the middle on the first row). This cycles through the modes.

      ⮚ When the left led is white: normal mode.
      ⮚ Right led white: full descramble mode (Linux descrambled Unicode input).
      ⮚ Middle led white: half descramble mode, with normal Unicode input system.

  With the middle led set to white, you can take advantage of a Unicode
  input mode that works on your system, if it is the same when the
  computer is set to Dvorak or not (see `_RAR` layer for Unicode input
  encoding selection). This more or less means there is one more Unicode
  encoding option than already standard in QMK: 'descrambled' version for 
  Linux (Shift-Control-U HEX) encoding, for use on a computer *already* set to
  Dvorak.

  To test it, (in Debian/Linux) go to a terminal in X and type (normal user)

        > setxkbmap -layout us -variant dvorak

  Undo:

        > setxkbmap -layout us

  Unicode on Windos operating system may require to install something special.
