Rename keyboard-level readmes to lower-case (#10759)
This is the recommendation in the [PR
Checklist](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/pr_checklist?id=keyboard-prs) and it
will make working with them easier in the CLI/API/etc.

You need to cut the traces from right Shift (switch 62) and wire it to column 2 (switch 65, right pin) and row 9 (switch 71, bottom pin). - - - -## Stock components removal -SN74LS145N IC (BCD-to-decimal decoder, drives matrix rows), NEC D8049HC IC (MCU, drives matrix columns) and resistor array need to be desoldered from the PCB. You need to shorten the 4 diodes (D2–D5) in the bottom right corner of the PCB (solder a wire between their pins). -I've also removed two electrolytic capacitors and some ceramic capacitors just to free an additional space. - -Optional: add diodes between each switch and corresponding row for NKRO. If you choose not to add them, create `config.h` file in your personal keymap folder and add `#define MATRIX_HAS_GHOST` to it. - -## Pro Micro -Suggested mount position for the Pro Micro: - - - -1. Solder two 8-pin headers to the Pro Micro (pin D1-B5 on the left side and pins F4-B6 on the right side). -2. Solder the Pro Micro to the Videowriter's PCB. -3. Solder 6 wire bridges (pink color on the photo). -4. By this point rows 0-4 and all columns will be already in place. -5. Connect rows 5-9 (see right side of the PCB) to the corresponding pins of the Pro Micro using additional wires. -6. Optional: connect a push button between Reset and Ground pins. - - - -Compile and flash the firmware. Use matrix [debug mode](https://docs.qmk.fm/#/feature_command) if something is wrong. |
