To solve this, RMK supports (only on the RP2040) a PIO driver for half duplex, gated behind a crate feature in `cargo.toml`. With it, we can set our Tx and Rx pins to the same pin. +In order to do this, however, I had to set the `rmk` dependency to a direct link to the Github repo, +because as of the time of writing, the `rp2040_pio` feature had not made it into a release. After the painstaking process of tracing all the pins and putting them in the matrix, we can define the keymap. My [keymap](https://github.com/gabevenberg/qmk_firmware/blob/personal/keyboards/ferris/keymaps/almost_default/keymap.json) is a bit complex, so it took some time to port. +It was mostly tedium rather than anything truly headscratching, however.
