When you tap a key, it stays depressed for a short period of time before it is
then released. This depressed time is a different length for everyone. Auto Shift
defines a constant `AUTO_SHIFT_TIMEOUT` which is typically set to twice your
normal pressed state time. When you press a key, a timer starts and then stops
when you release the key. If the time depressed is greater than or equal to the
`AUTO_SHIFT_TIMEOUT`, then a shifted version of the key is emitted. If the time
is less than the `AUTO_SHIFT_TIMEOUT` time, then the normal state is emitted.
normal pressed state time. When you press a key, a timer starts, and if you
have not released the key after the `AUTO_SHIFT_TIMEOUT` period, then a shifted
version of the key is emitted. If the time is less than the `AUTO_SHIFT_TIMEOUT`
time, or you press another key, then the normal state is emitted.
If `AUTO_SHIFT_REPEAT` is defined, there is keyrepeat support. Holding the key
down will repeat the shifted key, though this can be disabled with
`AUTO_SHIFT_NO_AUTO_REPEAT`. If you want to repeat the normal key, then tap it
once then immediately (within `TAPPING_TERM`) hold it down again (this works
with the shifted value as well if auto-repeat is disabled).
## Are There Limitations to Auto Shift?
Yes, unfortunately.
1. Key repeat will cease to work. For example, before if you wanted 20 'a'
characters, you could press and hold the 'a' key for a second or two. This no
longer works with Auto Shift because it is timing your depressed time instead
of emitting a depressed key state to your operating system.
2. You will have characters that are shifted when you did not intend on shifting, and
other characters you wanted shifted, but were not. This simply comes down to
practice. As we get in a hurry, we think we have hit the key long enough
for a shifted version, but we did not. On the other hand, we may think we are
tapping the keys, but really we have held it for a little longer than
anticipated.

Additionally, with keyrepeat the desired shift state can get mixed up. It will
always 'belong' to the last key pressed. For example, keyrepeating a capital
and then tapping something lowercase (whether or not it's an Auto Shift key)
will result in the capital's *key* still being held, but shift not.
## How Do I Enable Auto Shift?
@ -103,6 +109,14 @@ Do not Auto Shift numeric keys, zero through nine.
Do not Auto Shift alpha characters, which include A through Z.
### AUTO_SHIFT_REPEAT (simple define)
Enables keyrepeat.
### AUTO_SHIFT_NO_AUTO_REPEAT (simple define)
Disables automatically keyrepeating when `AUTO_SHIFT_TIMEOUT` is exceeded.
## Using Auto Shift Setup
This will enable you to define three keys temporarily to increase, decrease and report your `AUTO_SHIFT_TIMEOUT`.
