| I find this kind of keyboard remapping essential when using a laptop now that I'm used to using an external keyboard with QMK firmware at my desk (though these days I use Kmonad). |

| ▲ | analog_daddy 4 hours ago | parent [-] | | Oh my god! I hate using anything that is not my keyboard anymore. Laptops are not ‘lap’tops for me since I will just be slow without my keyboard. The split keyboard with many thumb keys is tough to achieve on laptop. | | |
| ▲ | garciansmith 4 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | Yeah, that is the downside to making your keyboard your own. Anytime I use someone else's computer I always spend a few seconds wondering why I just turned caps lock on and wrote a bunch of gibberish. | | |

| This is fantastic. Works perfectly right off the bat. I have so much trouble just getting capslock to be control consistently in Linux, and this made it easy. |

| What are the differences between this and https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper ? |

| ▲ | mkolassa an hour ago | parent [-] | | From what I can see in their readme, this is basically a key remapping utility without any of the advanced macro functionality that Input Remapper has. For example, I can create a macro in Input Remapper that is bound to the F12 key and will press keys 1, 2, and 3 in order at a certain rate and repeat for as long as I hold down that F12 key. This utility would just allow me to remap a key to another without that repeat or timing functionality. |

| I used this to remap the space key to be a modifier key and thought it might be useful for some. |

| Thanks keyd! You replaced a number of utterly shameful and janktacular python scripts. |

| Now I can finally reimplement spacebar heating! |
