Adopted LAYOUT, added some keys (#5320)
* Add HOME/END keys as upper/lower on arrow-up/down
* Reduce .hex file size by turning off unneeded options
* Put digit keypad onto left hand upon RAISE; this will sometimes be preferable to double-hits of right hand
* Latest super latest version merge
* cbbrowne keymap for XD75re
* starting notes on XD75re keymap plans
* First draft of bottom row of QWERTY
* Switch my special bottom line over to QCENT
* Dunno
* Filling in wanted keys, bit by bit...
* Add copyright, extra macro
* Clean up comments, remove some experimental code I didn't like
* TODO plans for xd75re
* clean up keyboard layout
* QCENT2 is my new experiment for the main keyboard...
* Add a few more main layer keys, and modify LOWER to shift things outwards to conform with main layer
* Clean up RAISE layer to conform with main layer, remove QCENT layer as QCENT2 is the new thing
* More xd75 changes, now that I actually have it in hand
* shift keymap around, as original attempt was a bit too aggressive in keeping to the edges
* more revs to XD75
* Dropping parts of the centre keypad in favor of Keys I Really Need
* Improve documentation to conform with how builds are done now
* Improve documentation to conform with how builds are done now
* Add cbbrowne rules file as alternative to having the rules in Makefile
* Makefile not needed anymore for individual keymap
* Some revs to my keymapping
* Add {}
* Add PGUP/PGDN
* Shifted some middle-range keys around
* Needed Tilde, Backquote, and to shift RESET onto FUNCTION layer
* Wanted ~
* cbbrowne hasn't anything to do with hadron keymaps
* trim unneeded bits
* I prefer OrgMode for my notes
* Have a right-alt
* Layer keys make LED colors change
* Add sample user rules for cbbrowne
* Add source of xd75 rules
* Individualized xd75 rules
* Adopt LAYOUT to genericize the layout as an ortholinear 5x15 keyboard

to allow selecting multiple items, and this really interferes

with that
