xmodmap

xmodmap is used to change the functionality of keys on your keyboard.

Use Cases

xmodmap can be used to:

  • Make Caps Lock function as Ctrl when held down
  • Used with xcape to make Caps Lock function as Escape when pressed

You should not use xmodmap if:

  • You do not need to modify keys

Usage

Run xmodmap ~/.xmodmap in one of your init scripts to make Caps Lock function as Ctrl when held down.

Then, use xcape -e 'Control_L=Escape' to make Caps Lock (left Ctrl) function as Escape when pressed.
