+### Advanced Macros
+
+In addition to the `process_record_user()` function, is the `post_process_record_user()` function. This runs after `process_record` and can be used to do things after a keystroke has been sent. This is useful if you want to have a key pressed before and released after a normal key, for instance.
+
+In this example, we modify most normal keypresses so that `F22` is pressed before the keystroke is normally sent, and release it __only after__ it's been released.
+
+```c
+static uint8_t f22_tracker;
+
+bool process_record_user(uint16_t keycode, keyrecord_t *record) {
+ switch (keycode) {
+ case KC_A ... KC_F21: //notice how it skips over F22
+ case KC_F23 ... KC_EXSEL: //exsel is the last one before the modifier keys
+ if (record->event.pressed) {
+ register_code(KC_F22); //this means to send F22 down
+ f22_tracker++;
+ register_code(keycode);
+ return false;
+ }
+ break;
+ }
+ return true;
+}
+
+void post_process_record_user(uint16_t keycode, keyrecord_t *record) {
+ switch (keycode) {
+ case KC_A ... KC_F21: //notice how it skips over F22
+ case KC_F23 ... KC_EXSEL: //exsel is the last one before the modifier keys
+ if (!record->event.pressed) {
+ f22_tracker--;
+ if (!f22_tracker) {
+ unregister_code(KC_F22); //this means to send F22 up
+ }
+ }
+ break;
+ }
+}
+```

### TAP, DOWN and UP
You may want to use keys in your macros that you can't write down, such as `Ctrl` or `Home`.

At any step during this chain of events a function (such as `process_record_kb()`) can `return false` to halt all further processing.
+After this is called, `post_process_record()` is called, which can be used to handle additional cleanup that needs to be run after the keycode is normally handled.
