Just remap ctrl to caps lock and you're set.
As for switching languages, Apple puts that in a fine place by default. It's open-apple and spacebar. Just enough effort to remind you what you're doing with no awkward carpal tunnel key combinations.

- hermanhermitage 10y agoYes, the first computer keyboards I used had both shift lock and caps lock. If I miss anything, I would like it if shift + caps lock, behaved the same as shift lock.
