Steno

Communicate with stenography software such as Plover over the Gemini PR protocol.

Setup

You must include the following in boot.py to enable data serial.

import usb_cdc
usb_cdc.enable(data=True)

Then, instantiate the module as usual and add steno keys to your keymap.

from kmk.modules.steno import Steno
keyboard.modules.append(Steno())
