Hi,

Thanks for your very good article: A guide to home row mods 👍

What do you think about add in this article a xremap home-row configuration example, like for kmonad?

Note: I will work on this configuration, I can share it when I'll a stable version.

Best regards, Stéphane

From a cursory glance through the README, I see no way to configure the tap-or-hold decision mode. The only available option is something akin to QMK's HOLD_ON_OTHER_KEY_PRESS which is unusable for home row mods.

If you specify a map containing held and alone, you can use the key for two purposes. The key is considered alone if it's pressed and released within alone_timeout_millis (default: 1000) before any other key is pressed. Otherwise it's considered held.
