(NOTE: Current and future versions of this and any other Advantage 2-related things I post will be at https://github.com/nicholasknight/adv2keyboard)

I received my Advantage 2 today. There's no full manual yet, even though keyboards are apparently arriving (hint, hint, Kinesis). The quick start guide leaves out the "power user mode", and there are some other quirks.

Update: A manual has been posted at http://www.kinesis-ergo.com/advantage2-resources/

It includes a dictionary for the key maps, but I know it leaves at least one possible key undocumented: it does not list f14, but I have successfully mapped my scrollock to f14 regardless.

It also mentions a firmware version (1.0.18) that doesn't seem to be available yet, with a new feature (status report playback speed).

Basic

import code; code.interact(local=locals())

Advanced

IPython with embed()

	That’s one of the real strengths of Docker: the ability to go back to a previous commit. The secret is simply to docker tag the image you want.

	Here’s an example. In this example, I first installed ping, then committed, then installed curl, and committed that. Then I rolled back the image to contain only ping:

	$ docker history imagename
	IMAGE CREATED CREATED BY SIZE
	f770fc671f11 12 seconds ago apt-get install -y curl 21.3 MB
	28445c70c2b3 39 seconds ago apt-get install ping 11.57 MB

	#!/bin/bash
	#
	# DESCRIPTION:
	#
	# Set the bash prompt according to:
	# * the active virtualenv
	# * the branch of the current git/mercurial repository
	# * the return value of the previous command
	# * the fact you just came from Windows and are used to having newlines in
	# your prompts.

	git diff -p \
	\| grep -E '^(diff\|old mode\|new mode)' \
	\| sed -e 's/^old/NEW/;s/^new/old/;s/^NEW/new/' \
	\| git apply
