# Caps Word
|
||||
|
||||
It is often useful to type a single word in all capitals, for instance
|
||||
abbreviations like "QMK", or in code, identifiers like `KC_SPC`. "Caps Word" is
|
||||
a modern alternative to Caps Lock:
|
||||
|
||||
* While active, letters are capitalized and `-` becomes `_`. The `_` makes it easier
|
||||
to type constant names (eg 'PROGRAM\_CONSTANTS').
|
||||
|
||||
* Caps Word automatically disables
|
||||
itself at the end of the word. That is, it stops by default once a space or
|
||||
any key other than `KC_A`--`KC_Z`, `KC_0`--`KC_9`, `KC_MINS`, `KC_UNDS`,
|
||||
`KC_DELETE`, or `KC_BACKSPACE` is pressed. Caps Word also disables itself if
|
||||
the keyboard is idle for 5 seconds. This is configurable, see below.
|
||||
|
||||
* To avoid requiring a dedicated key for Caps Word, there is an option
|
||||
(`BOTH_SHIFTS_TURNS_ON_CAPS_WORD`) to activate Caps Word by simultaneously
|
||||
pressing both shift keys. See below for other options.
|
||||
|
||||
* The implementation does not use the Caps Lock (`KC_CAPS`) keycode. Caps Word
|
||||
works even if you're remapping Caps Lock at the OS level to Ctrl or something
|
||||
else, as Emacs and Vim users often do. As a consequence, Caps Word does not
|
||||
follow the typical Caps Lock behaviour and may thus act in potentially
|
||||
unexpected ways, especially when using an *OS* keyboard layout other than US
|
||||
or UK. For example, Dvorak's <kbd>, <</kbd> key (`DV_COMM` aka `KC_W`) will
|
||||
get shifted because Caps Word interprets that keycode as the letter 'W' by
|
||||
default, the Spanish <kbd>Ñ</kbd> key (`ES_NTIL` aka `KC_SCLN`) will not get
|
||||
capitalized because Caps Word interprets it as the semicolon ';' punctuation
|
||||
character, and the US hyphen key (`KC_MINS`), while unaffected by Caps Lock,
|
||||
is shifted by Caps Word. However, this is not really a problem because you can
|
||||
[configure which keys should Caps Word
|
||||
shift](#configure-which-keys-are-word-breaking).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## How do I enable Caps Word {#how-do-i-enable-caps-word}
|
||||
|
||||
In your `rules.mk`, add:
|
||||
|
||||
```make
|
||||
CAPS_WORD_ENABLE = yes
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Next, use one the following methods to activate Caps Word:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Activate by pressing a key**: Use the `QK_CAPS_WORD_TOGGLE` keycode (short
|
||||
alias `CW_TOGG`) in your keymap.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Activate by pressing Left Shift + Right Shift**: Add `#define
|
||||
BOTH_SHIFTS_TURNS_ON_CAPS_WORD` to config.h. You may also need to disable or
|
||||
reconfigure Command, details below. Then, simultaneously pressing both left
|
||||
and right shifts turns on Caps Word. This method works with the plain
|
||||
`KC_LSFT` and `KC_RSFT` keycodes as well as one-shot shifts and Space Cadet
|
||||
shifts. If your shift keys are mod-taps, hold both shift mod-tap keys until
|
||||
the tapping term, then release them.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Activate by double tapping Left Shift**: Add `#define
|
||||
DOUBLE_TAP_SHIFT_TURNS_ON_CAPS_WORD` config.h. Then, double tapping Left Shift
|
||||
turns on Caps Word. This method works with `KC_LSFT` or one-shot Left Shift
|
||||
`OSM(MOD_LSFT)`. To count as a double tap, the maximum time in milliseconds
|
||||
between taps is `TAPPING_TERM`, or if using `TAPPING_TERM_PER_KEY`, the time
|
||||
returned by `get_tapping_term()` for the shift keycode being tapped.
|
||||
|
||||
* **Custom activation**: You can activate Caps Word from code by calling
|
||||
`caps_word_on()`. This may be used to activate Caps Word through [a
|
||||
combo](combo) or [tap dance](tap_dance) or any means
|
||||
you like.
|
||||
|
||||
### Troubleshooting: Command {#troubleshooting-command}
|
||||
|
||||
When using `BOTH_SHIFTS_TURNS_ON_CAPS_WORD`, you might see a compile message
|
||||
**"BOTH_SHIFTS_TURNS_ON_CAPS_WORD and Command should not be enabled at the same
|
||||
time, since both use the Left Shift + Right Shift key combination."**
|
||||
|
||||
Many keyboards enable the [Command feature](command), which by
|
||||
default is also activated using the Left Shift + Right Shift key combination. To
|
||||
fix this conflict, please disable Command by adding in rules.mk:
|
||||
|
||||
```make
|
||||
COMMAND_ENABLE = no
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Or configure Command to use another key combination like Left Ctrl + Right Ctrl
|
||||
by defining `IS_COMMAND()` in config.h:
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
// Activate Command with Left Ctrl + Right Ctrl.
|
||||
#define IS_COMMAND() (get_mods() == MOD_MASK_CTRL)
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Customizing Caps Word {#customizing-caps-word}
|
||||
|
||||
### Invert on shift {#invert-on-shift}
|
||||
|
||||
By default, Caps Word turns off when Shift keys are pressed, considering them as
|
||||
word-breaking. Alternatively with the `CAPS_WORD_INVERT_ON_SHIFT` option,
|
||||
pressing the Shift key continues Caps Word and inverts the shift state. This
|
||||
is convenient for uncapitalizing one or a few letters within a word, for
|
||||
example with Caps Word on, typing "D, B, Shift+A, Shift+A, S" produces "DBaaS",
|
||||
or typing "P, D, F, Shift+S" produces "PDFs".
|
||||
|
||||
Enable it by adding in config.h
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#define CAPS_WORD_INVERT_ON_SHIFT
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This option works with regular Shift keys `KC_LSFT` and `KC_RSFT`, mod-tap Shift
|
||||
keys, and one-shot Shift keys. Note that while Caps Word is on, one-shot Shift
|
||||
keys behave like regular Shift keys, and have effect only while they are held.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Idle timeout {#idle-timeout}
|
||||
|
||||
Caps Word turns off automatically if no keys are pressed for
|
||||
`CAPS_WORD_IDLE_TIMEOUT` milliseconds. The default is 5000 (5 seconds).
|
||||
Configure the timeout duration in config.h, for instance
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
#define CAPS_WORD_IDLE_TIMEOUT 3000 // 3 seconds.
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Setting `CAPS_WORD_IDLE_TIMEOUT` to 0 configures Caps Word to never time out.
|
||||
Caps Word then remains active indefinitely until a word breaking key is pressed.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Functions {#functions}
|
||||
|
||||
Functions to manipulate Caps Word:
|
||||
|
||||
| Function | Description |
|
||||
|-------------------------|------------------------------------------------|
|
||||
| `caps_word_on()` | Turns Caps Word on. |
|
||||
| `caps_word_off()` | Turns Caps Word off. |
|
||||
| `caps_word_toggle()` | Toggles Caps Word. |
|
||||
| `is_caps_word_on()` | Returns true if Caps Word is currently on. |
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Configure which keys are "word breaking" {#configure-which-keys-are-word-breaking}
|
||||
|
||||
You can define the `caps_word_press_user(uint16_t keycode)` callback to
|
||||
configure which keys should be shifted and which keys are considered "word
|
||||
breaking" and stop Caps Word.
|
||||
|
||||
The callback is called on every key press while Caps Word is active. When the
|
||||
key should be shifted (that is, a letter key), the callback should call
|
||||
`add_weak_mods(MOD_BIT(KC_LSFT))` to shift the key. Returning true continues the
|
||||
current "word," while returning false is "word breaking" and deactivates Caps
|
||||
Word. The default callback is
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
bool caps_word_press_user(uint16_t keycode) {
|
||||
switch (keycode) {
|
||||
// Keycodes that continue Caps Word, with shift applied.
|
||||
case KC_A ... KC_Z:
|
||||
case KC_MINS:
|
||||
add_weak_mods(MOD_BIT(KC_LSFT)); // Apply shift to next key.
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
|
||||
// Keycodes that continue Caps Word, without shifting.
|
||||
case KC_1 ... KC_0:
|
||||
case KC_BSPC:
|
||||
case KC_DEL:
|
||||
case KC_UNDS:
|
||||
return true;
|
||||
|
||||
default:
|
||||
return false; // Deactivate Caps Word.
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Representing Caps Word state {#representing-caps-word-state}
|
||||
|
||||
Define `caps_word_set_user(bool active)` to get callbacks when Caps Word turns
|
||||
on or off. This is useful to represent the current Caps Word state, e.g. by
|
||||
setting an LED or playing a sound. In your keymap, define
|
||||
|
||||
```c
|
||||
void caps_word_set_user(bool active) {
|
||||
if (active) {
|
||||
// Do something when Caps Word activates.
|
||||
} else {
|
||||
// Do something when Caps Word deactivates.
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
