Grave Escape
Grave Escape is a feature that allows you to share the grave key (` and ~) on the same key as Escape. When KC_GESC is used it will act as KC_ESC, unless Shift or GUI is pressed, in which case it will act as KC_GRAVE.
| Key | Aliases | Description |
|---|---|---|
KC_GESC |
GRAVE_ESC |
Escape when pressed, ` when Shift or GUI are held |
There are several possible key combinations this will break, among them Ctrl+Shift+Esc on Windows and Cmd+Opt+Esc on macOS. You can use these options in your config.h to work around this:

GRAVE_ESC_CTRL_OVERRIDE |
Always send Escape if Ctrl is pressed. |
GRAVE_ESC_GUI_OVERRIDE |

GRAVE_ESC_SHIFT_OVERRIDE |
