- to3m 14y agoYes, you can do it with AutoHotKey. I tried it a few years ago but didn't really get on with it. I think it might have caused problems with some keyboard shortcuts I use - a lot of my emacs shortcuts are designed for activation with one hand pressing modifier keys and the letter key. Anyway, just use the < and > modifiers to indicate left or right Shift specifically. For example, assuming QWERTY: <+q::Send q >+p::Send p
- cpdean 14y agobut wait, this doesn't get at having shift behave normally unless it is the only key that gets pressed. Does it?
- to3m 14y agoNo, sorry - the bit from the article that was in my mind as I replied was forcing one to use the opposite Shift, because I'd tried that myself. I didn't think about the use of Shift as a key on its own (I really wouldn't get on with that myself as I tap the meta keys a lot while I'm thinking).
- cpdean 14y agocreate a file, ctrl-to-esc.ahk: Ctrl:: Send {esc} Return Then run the script and AutoHotkey will sit in the background, waiting to substitute a lone ctrl for an escape-key-press. I haven't figured out the shift-parens yet, unfortunately.
