Anyone know how/if to program this for copying and pasting on a Mac? Made it work easily for PC, but Mac would use GUI+C or GUI+V and I can't see how to make that happen. Sad.

KCCoffeegeekThis is exactly what I was considering it for; I’m 99.9% certain that this can be done with Keyboard Maestro, Karabiner, or, longshot, Better Touch Tool. KM and Kb simply listen for signal codes from any device (general or device-specific), and can then be assigned to keystrokes or complex macros; BTT can do all the same, and different/more, but seems to be restricted to supporting devices piecemeal or only if they strictly adhere to the HID spec. Considering this is an $11 board you can snag on alibaba, et al, I’m not holding out much hope. I tried to find a 3-4-6 key version, but no luck so far.
I have two different workflows where having cut/copy/paste/delete/tab/enter on a micro board while I’m using my left hand on my trackball or touchpad would be fantastic.
That said, I would much prefer more keys to do this, but with KM, I can signal it to respond to 1-4 taps, long presses, etc., so as long as it sends to unique codes on one layer, I can get a couple dozen actions out of just two keys. so, copy/past (1 tap) cut/delete (taps 2-3 on #1) tab/enter (taps 2-3 #2), etc.
I’m also worried about the comments suggesting it fails on USB 2.0; but we’ll see. I also need to be able to turn off the RGB altogether, unless I can match my blue backlit and make a cowl to keep the light-leakage to a minimum.
I’m going to take a chance, knowing full well I’m also going to have to swap out the (likely garbage) keys for browns or blues.
