Caps lock to esc?

[Erik]

Hello does anyone have a script that makes caps lock into esc and shift caps lock to caps lock? Or something similar?

Presuming you're on linux, I suspect you'd be better off trying to do that with something like xmodmap instead.

Welcome to the AutoKey community, Erik!

Yes and if you do, be sure to set AutoKey to Ignore capslock.

I used to use this as a guide:

reassign caps lock

    setxkbmap -option caps:none

    setxkbmap -option caps:swapescape

You can also use other options instead of “caps:none”:

    caps:numlock – Caps Lock becomes an additional Num Lock.

    caps:swapescape – Caps Lock becomes Escape, and Escape becomes Caps Lock

    caps:escape – Caps Lock becomes an additional Escape.

    caps:backspace – Caps Lock becomes an additional Backspace.

    caps:super – Caps Lock becomes an additional Super. (Super is also known as the Windows key.)

All the best
