Similar to the other revert commits, I may want to do some programming
in xorg, where xcape and xmodmap are useful.

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.
