Keyboard modifications

vim-style navigation with xmodmap

Init script will create a symbolic link from ~/.Xmodmap to ~/.dotfiles/config/x/.Xmodmap, which provides vim-style cursor / mouse pointer navigation:

From To
Caps_Lock Mode_switch
Shift + Caps_Lock Caps_Lock
Caps_Lock + 4 line end
Caps_Lock + 0 line start
Caps_Lock + h cursor left
Caps_Lock + j cursor down
Caps_Lock + k cursor up
Caps_Lock + l cursor right
Caps_Lock + x delete

Some modifications require accessibility feature to work:

From To
Caps_Lock + s mouse pointer left
Caps_Lock + d mouse pointer down
Caps_Lock + f mouse pointer up
Caps_Lock + g mouse pointer right
Caps_Lock + v mouse button 1
Caps_Lock + b mouse button 2
Caps_Lock + n mouse button 3
More escapes with xcape

Drop the below line to .xinitrc, after xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap line to have short press of Caps_Lock and Control_L to dispatch Esc key instead.

xcape -e 'Control_L=Escape;Mode_switch=Escape'
