Planck keyboard firmware

## Extended Keymap
If you include extended_keymap_common.h instead of keymap_common.h at the top of your file, you'll have access to a bunch of goodies:
- Use `LSFT()`, `LCTL()`, et. al. (listed in extended_keymap_common.h) as modifiers for keys (daisy-chain-able)
- Use `FUNC(1)` instead of `FN1` (etc.) to access the function layers beyond the 32 function layer limit
- Use `CM_F` instead of `KC_F` to get the ColeMak equivilent for shortcuts (maps backwards)
### Some notes on usage:
- The `KEYMAP()` macro is unable to be used due to the bitwise modifications that take place - refer to extended_keymap_jack.c to see how to set things up with the `KC_` prefix
- Keep an eye on the Makefile - this needs to include the correct files to work
- Don't forget to use `const uint16_t PROGMEM keymaps[][MATRIX_ROWS][MATRIX_COLS] = {` instead of the 8bit equivilent
## Build
Follow [this guide](http://deskthority.net/workshop-f7/how-to-build-your-very-own-keyboard-firmware-t7177.html) to setup your development environment before anything else.
Download the whole firmware [here](https://github.com/jackhumbert/tmk_keyboard/archive/master.zip) and navigate to the keyboard/planck folder. Once your dev env is setup, you'll be able to type "make" to generate your .hex that you can load with the Teensy app onto your Planck (once you've hit reset/shorted GND & RST).

Move to this directory then just run `make` like:
$ make
Use `make -f Makefile.pjrc` if you want to use PJRC stack but I find no reason to do so now.
## Keymap
Several version of keymap are available in advance but you are recommended to define your favorite layout yourself. To define your own keymap create file named `keymap_<name>.c` and see keymap document(you can find in top README.md) and existent keymap files.

To build firmware binary hex file with a certain keymap just do `make` with `KEYMAP` option like:
$ make KEYMAP=[<name>]
