M0110/M0110A to USB keyboard converter
======================================
This firmware converts the protocol of Apple Macintosh keyboard M0110/M0110A into USB.
Target board of this project is [PJRC Teensy](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/), though,
you can use other board with USB AVR like `ATmega32U4` and `AT90USB`.

M0110A support was contributed by [skagon@github](https://github.com/skagon).
Connection
----------
You need 4P4C plug and cable to connect Teensy or other AVR dev board into the keyboard.
Teensy port `PF0` is assigned for `CLOCK` line and `PF1` for `DATA` by default,
you can change pin configuration with editing *config.h*.
You can find 4P4C plugs on telephone handset cable. Note that it is *crossover* connection
while Macintosh keyboard cable is *straight*.

2. `CLOCK`(Red)
3. `DATA`(Green)
4. `+5V`(Yellow)
Not that wire colors may vary in your cable.

### Pull-up Registor
You may need pull-up registors on signal lines(`CLOCK`, `DATA`) in particular
when you have long or coiled cable. 1k-10k Ohm will be OK for this purpose.
In some cases MCU can't read signal from keyboard correctly without pull-up resistors.
Building Frimware
-----------------
To compile firmware you need AVR GCC. You can use [WinAVR](http://winavr.sourceforge.net/) on Windows.
You can edit *Makefile* and *config.h* to change compile options and pin configuration.
$ git clone ... (or download source)
$ cd m0110_usb
$ make
and program your Teensy with [PJRC Teensy loader](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/loader.html).
Keymap
------
You can change keymaps by editing *keymap.c*.

Debug
-----
You can use [PJRC HID listen](http://www.pjrc.com/teensy/hid_listen.html) to see debug output.
The converter has some functions for debug, press `Alt+Gui+H` simultaneously to get help.
These function is totally undocumented, tentative, inconsistent and buggy.
Arrow Keys
----------
Dedicated arrow keys of the M0110A are transmitting the same scancodes as the keypad but also,
its [=], [/], [*] and [+] keys (hereafter referred to as "calc" keys) are not assigned new
scancodes but, instead, transmit a sequence of scancodes which emulates the [Shift] key press,
followed by the same scancode sequence of the arrow keys!
The problem with that approach is that, while in most cases it's easy to distinguish between
a user-generated [Shift] key event (press or release) followed by an arrow or a calc key and
a simulated [Shift] key event generated upon a calc key event, when the user is typing fairly
fast, it is possible that the two events become indistinguishable, and produce undesired results
-- nothing major, though, just one or two stray characters or cursor movements; it will NOT
format your drives, kill your cat or make your wife run away with the pizza boy.
