"Raw data" allows a format that you can't paste into another service. #221

I've discovered that the "raw data" part of k-l-e will recognize

[{x:5},{w:2},"key"]

as being a single key, and display it as intended, but if I paste it into http://builder.swillkb.com/ it comes out broken,on that site, believing I meant two keys, the first of which is of width 1 and has no label.

[{x:5,w:2},"key"]

works correctly and as intended, of course. I think this means {thing},{thing} should probably be considered an error and k-l-e should suggest (and generate!) {thing,thing} instead.

Thank you for k-l-e, though, it's good fun and useful.

the raw data view is json-lite ... use the Download -> Download JSON to get the proper json version for swill.

Contrawise, if you're using the QMK firmware generator, you need to use the "lite" version ....

FWIW, KLE does generate the second version. (If you type the first version, then tweak it in any way using the editor, you'll see that the raw-data has change to the second version).

The first version is still considered valid, though. (I can't comment on what swillkb.com does/doesn't support.)
