* `ALL_T(kc)` - is Hyper (all mods) when held and *kc* when tapped. To read more about what you can do with a Hyper key, see [this blog post by Brett Terpstra](http://brettterpstra.com/2012/12/08/a-useful-caps-lock-key/)
* `LCAG_T(kc)` - is CtrlAltGui when held and *kc* when tapped
* `MEH_T(kc)` - is like Hyper, but not as cool -- does not include the Cmd/Win key, so just sends Alt+Ctrl+Shift.
##### Permissive Hold
As of [PR#1359](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pull/1359/), there is a new `config.h` option:
```
#define PERMISSIVE_HOLD
```
This makes it easier for fast typists to use dual-function keys. As described in the PR:
Without this, if you let go of a held key inside the tapping term, it won't register.
Example: (Tapping Term = 200)
- SHFT_T(KC_A) Down
- KC_X Down
- KC_X Up
- SHFT_T(KC_A) Up
With permissive hold, if above is typed within tapping term, this will emit `X` (so, Shift+X).
With defaults, if above is typed within tapping term, this will emit `ax`, which I doubt is what anyone really wants
