1 | # Command (Formerly known as Magic) | ||
2 | |||
3 | Command is a way to change your keyboard's behavior without having to flash or unplug it to use [Bootmagic](feature_bootmagic.md). There is a lot of overlap between this functionality and the [Bootmagic Keycodes](feature_bootmagic.md). Whenever possible we encourage you to use that functionality instead of Command. | ||
4 | |||
5 | ## Enabling Command | ||
6 | |||
7 | By default Command is disabled. You can enable it in your `rules.mk` file: | ||
8 | |||
9 | COMMAND_ENABLE = yes | ||
10 | |||
11 | ## Usage | ||
12 | |||
13 | To use Command you hold down the key combination defined by `IS_COMMAND`. By default that combination is both shift keys. While holding the key combination press the key corresponding to the command you want. | ||
14 | |||
15 | For example, to write the current QMK version to the QMK Toolbox console, you can press `Left Shift`+`Right Shift`+`V`. | ||
16 | |||
17 | ## Configuration | ||
18 | |||
19 | The following values can be defined in `config.h` to control the behavior of Command. | ||
