# Space Cadet Shift: The Future, Built In
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Steve Losh described the [Space Cadet Shift](http://stevelosh.com/blog/2012/10/a-modern-space-cadet/) quite well. Essentially, when you tap Left Shift on its own, you get an opening parenthesis; tap Right Shift on its own and you get the closing one. When held, the Shift keys function as normal. Yes, it's as cool as it sounds.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Replace the Left Shift key in your keymap with `KC_LSPO` (Left Shift, Parenthesis Open), and Right Shift with `KC_RSPC` (Right Shift, Parenthesis Close).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

|

|

|`KC_RSPC`|Right Shift when held, `)` when tapped|

|
|
## Caveats
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Space Cadet's functionality can conflict with the default Command functionality when both Shift keys are held at the same time. Make sure that Command is disabled in your `rules.mk` with:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```make
|
||
|
|
COMMAND_ENABLE = no
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
By default Space Cadet assumes a US ANSI layout, but if your layout uses different keys for parentheses, you can redefine them in your `config.h`.
|
||
|
|
You can also disable the rollover, allowing you to use the opposite Shift key to cancel the Space Cadet state in the event of an erroneous press, instead of emitting a pair of parentheses when the keys are released.
