 ### Changing hold function
 
-Likewise, the same custom code can also be used to intercept the hold function to send custom user key code. The following example uses `LT(0, kc)` (layer-tap key with no practical use because layer 0 is always active) to add cut, copy and paste function to X,C and V keys when they are held down:
