    Thanks! Vanilla GNOME had been a no-go for me for a long time since neither the options nor GNOME Tweaks allow sufficient level of keyboard customization to prevent physical pain for me when typing a lot. I've been using Cinnamon and KDE which do support such settings. With this tool, the amount of DEs I can use increases greatly.
    (I still think vanilla GNOME should include some of the more commonly used keyboard settings though...)

    Thank you for this video. I was already using xremap but I didn't know about most of these features. Very useful! 👍

    Xremap is insanely good i use it myself. I use it to map my caps-lock on my laptop to an extra layer to use with ijkl for arrows and tap for ESC.

      when you understand it's semantics it's easy:
      NCMPCPP: NCurses Music Player Client Plus Plus
      or how I thought of it in the past - ncmp rewritten in cpp, so ncmp+cpp
      (actually it's ncmpc rewritten in cpp so I was kinda wrong but doesn't matter, that was enough for me to remember it)

    Hi thanks for the guide! Very nicely structured.
    By the way, is it possible to handle international layouts as well? like to have custom english layout (e.g. dvorak or colemak) and russian layout

    • @vimjoyer
      @vimjoyer  9 місяців тому

      All Keys are detected as English qwerty for me on Russian layout, but I'm sure you could configure it to do anything you want.

    Would you also make a video about kmonad? I think it is underrated. You can do crazy things with it, and as far as I know, it supports Windows (and MacOS) too.

    Another tool that the same job but not covering all the keys so that I end up using 3 tools for mapping keys 😆
    I'm not even joking: I use `keyd`, `xkbmap` and `xremap`. Each one of them covers what others lack.

    • @vimjoyer
      @vimjoyer  5 місяців тому

      Yeah, that's just Linux key mapping. I wish we had some simpler, more reliable solution.

    Is it possible to set fn as a modifier? Fn in that list, I tried it to set as a modifier but it didn't work. Its the most to the left key on my bottom row and it's only used with the top, would be great to extent it's functionality. I'm not even sure why that key exists, why do function key not use shift like all the other keys? Great video btw

    • @vimjoyer
      @vimjoyer  3 місяці тому +1

      I don't think so, It's probably not registered by the OS
