¿Why not both?
I have (on Linux, not on Mac, but it shouldn't matter):
* "caps lock" + key = Ctrl+key
* "caps lock" (release) = Esc
It works like charm and I can definitely recommend it.

- SkyPuncher 8y agoKarabiner - https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/ https://pqrs.org/osx/karabiner/ I have mine mapped to: * caps (no other key) => esc * caps + home row => corresponding symbol key Extremely nice for programming when '(' and ')' are on 'L' and ';' keys - directly under my fingers.
- tingol 8y agoYou can use https://github.com/alols/xcape https://github.com/alols/xcape on linux.
- narimiran 8y agoI guess there are other ways and tools, I use this: 1. to put Ctrl on CapsLock: setxkbmap -option caps:ctrl_modifier 2. to have "dual" CL as described above: xcape -e 'Caps_Lock=Escape'
- slig 8y agoSo simple, I wish I had thought about it before. Thanks.
