# 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 | Alias | Description |
|
||
|
|-----|-------|-------------|
|
||
|
| `GRAVE_ESC` | `KC_GESC` | Act as `KC_ESC` normally, or `KC_GRAVE` when GUI or Shift 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_ALT_OVERRIDE` | Always send Escape if Alt is pressed. |
|
||
|
| `GRAVE_ESC_CTRL_OVERRIDE` | Always send Escape if Ctrl is pressed. |
|
