Map holding caps lock to control and esc on tap, you never use it anyway :)


For me, caps lock is no better than ctrl. There's only one, meaning key combos on your left require stretching your 4th (pinky) finger out. I caused permanent damage to my 4th finger that way. Do not recommend.


Correct answer. This is one of the few defaults that makes sense to change as it can be done at the OS level, which will then be inherited to the tens of different systems i use vi on a day.


OS offer emulating Caps Lock by pressing both Shift keys, no? This would be a solution for people who HAVE TO WRITE UPPERCASE A LOT for some reason.
