 !> If you had *explicitly* set `VIRSTER_ENABLE = no`, none of the serial stenography protocols (GeminiPR, TX Bolt) will work properly. You are expected to either set it to `yes`, remove the line from your `rules.mk` or send the steno chords yourself in an alternative way using the [provided interceptable hooks](#interfacing-with-the-code).
 
-In your keymap, create a new layer for Plover, that you can fill in with the [steno keycodes](#keycode-reference) (you will need to include `keymap_steno.h`, see `planck/keymaps/steno/keymap.c` for an example). Remember to create a key to switch to the layer as well as a key for exiting the layer.
+In your keymap, create a new layer for Plover, that you can fill in with the [steno keycodes](#keycode-reference). Remember to create a key to switch to the layer as well as a key for exiting the layer.
 
 Once you have your keyboard flashed, launch Plover. Click the 'Configure...' button. In the 'Machine' tab, select the Stenotype Machine that corresponds to your desired protocol. Click the 'Configure...' button on this tab and enter the serial port or click 'Scan'. Baud rate is fine at 9600 (although you should be able to set as high as 115200 with no issues). Use the default settings for everything else (Data Bits: 8, Stop Bits: 1, Parity: N, no flow control).
