Changes the formatting of the key values at `Code Type 0xC4: Begin Extended Keypress Conditional Block` in cheats.md so that it is perfectly clear that those values are 64-bit values rather than 32-bit or 28-bit like `Code Type 0x8: Begin Keypress Conditional Block`, and also for the fact that the formatting matches the rest of the document and is thus cleaner. |

Atmosphère is a work-in-progress customized firmware for the Nintendo Switch.
Components
Atmosphère consists of multiple components, each of which replaces/modifies a different component of the system:
- Fusée: First-stage Loader, responsible for loading and validating stage 2 (custom TrustZone) plus package2 (Kernel/FIRM sysmodules), and patching them as needed. This replaces all functionality normally in Package1loader/NX Bootloader.
- Exosphère: Customized TrustZone, to run a customized Secure Monitor
- Thermosphère: EL2 EmuNAND support, i.e. backing up and using virtualized/redirected NAND images
- Stratosphère: Custom Sysmodule(s), both Rosalina style to extend the kernel/provide new features, and of the loader reimplementation style to hook important system actions
- Troposphère: Application-level Horizon OS patches, used to implement desirable CFW features
