## Bluetooth functionality
|

|
||||
This requires [some hardware changes](https://www.reddit.com/r/MechanicalKeyboards/comments/3psx0q/the_planck_keyboard_with_bluetooth_guide_and/?ref=search_posts), but can be enabled via the Makefile. The firmware will still output characters via USB, so be aware of this when charging via a computer. It would make sense to have a switch on the Bluefruit to turn it off at will.

## International Characters on Windows
|
||||
|
||||
[AutoHotkey](https://autohotkey.com) allows Windows users to create custom hotkeys amont others.
|
||||
|
||||
The method does not require Unicode support in the keyboard itself but depends instead of AutoHotkey running in the background.
|
||||
|
||||
First you need to select a modifier combination that is not in use by any of your programs.
|
||||
CtrlAltWin is not used very widely and should therefore be perfect for this.
|
||||
There is a macro defined for a mod-tab combo `LCAG_T`.
|
||||
Add this mod-tab combo to a key on your keyboard, e.g.: `LCAG_T(KC_TAB)`.
|
||||
This makes the key behave like a tab key if pressed and released immediately but changes it to the modifier if used with another key.
|
||||
|
||||
In the default script of AutoHotkey you can define custom hotkeys.
|
||||
|
||||
<^<!<#a::Send, ä
|
||||
<^<!<#<+a::Send, Ä
|
||||
|
||||
The hotkeys above are for the combination CtrlAltGui and CtrlAltGuiShift plus the letter a.
|
||||
AutoHotkey inserts the Text right of `Send, ` when this combination is pressed.
