 Atreus
-===
+======
 
 A small mechanical keyboard that is based around the shape of the human hand.
 
-These configuration files are specifically for the Atreus keyboards created by Phil Hagelberg (@technomancy). This keyboard is available in two variants: one powered by a Teensy 2, (usually hand-wired) one powered by an A-Star. (usually using a PCB) This repository currently assumes that you have an A-Star powered Atreus. If you are using a Teensy2, specify that by adding `TEENSY2=yes` to your `make` commands.

 Keyboard Maintainer: [Phil Hagelberg](https://github.com/technomancy)  
 Hardware Supported: Atreus, PCB-based or hand-wired  
 Hardware Availability: https://atreus.technomancy.us

This keyboard is available in two variants: one powered by a Teensy 2 (usually hand-wired), one powered by an A-Star (usually using a PCB). You will need to use different `make` commands depending on the variant you have; see examples below.

+A-Star:\

-    make atreus:default:avrdude
+Teensy:\

+If your keyboard layout is a mirror image of what you expected (i.e. you do not get QWERTY on the left but YTREWQ on the right), then you have an A-Star powered Atreus (older than March 2016) with PCB labels facing *down* instead of up. Specify that by adding `PCBDOWN=yes` to your `make` commands, e.g.
