Do you never enter apps like htop? Even without function keys for filter and search you at least would need an esc key to quit. I have esc remapped to capslock

Do you never enter apps like htop? Even without function keys for filter and search you at least would need an esc key to quit.
I have esc remapped to capslock on my laptop, but how easy is it to remap keys in OSX?
- r-s 10y agoIts very easy to remap keys in OSX. Its in the Keyboard Settings.
- m3rc 10y agoso the understanding here is that everyone is just going to remap esc?
- leejoramo 10y agoUp until macOS 10.12, it was difficult to remap the ESC to CAP LOCK. Now it is an option in the keyboard settings. My biggest complaint is since macOS Sierra, it is now so hard to create a Hyper-key. http://brettterpstra.com/2016/09/29/a-better-hyper-key-hack-for-sierra/ http://brettterpstra.com/2016/09/29/a-better-hyper-key-hack-...
- leejoramo 10y agoYou got me there. htop is probably the one terminal app that I regularly use that has important FN keys. Still I bet only one out of 5 times do I actually use the FN keys in htop. I suspect that of the amount that I use them, Apple's access to old function keys via the Touch Bar will be fine for me. (And I can always pull out my Happy Hacker Keyboard)
- michaelmior 10y agoEsc quits htop on Mac OS? That's really odd. I've gotten used to Ctrl+C on Linux.
- igravious 10y agoq for quit in htop on ubuntu
- m3rc 10y agoctrl-c sends a SIGINT to the terminal, it's not a quit command. F10 is the original quit for htop along with F6 being sort, F3 being search, and so on
- michaelmior 10y agoI understand, but it still has the effect of quitting.
- m3rc 10y agoworkarounds exist sure, they aren't replacements for that app's workflow
