I find this kind of keyboard remapping essential when using a laptop now that I'm used to using an external keyboard with QMK firmware at my desk (though these days I use Kmonad).
Oh my god! I hate using anything that is not my keyboard anymore. Laptops are not ‘lap’tops for me since I will just be slow without my keyboard. The split keyboard with many thumb keys is tough to achieve on laptop.
Yeah, that is the downside to making your keyboard your own. Anytime I use someone else's computer I always spend a few seconds wondering why I just turned caps lock on and wrote a bunch of gibberish.
This is fantastic. Works perfectly right off the bat. I have so much trouble just getting capslock to be control consistently in Linux, and this made it easy.

I had a friend with a kinesis dvorak keyboard.
Happily he would put it in "guest" qwerty mode when I had to type on it. It was hard enough typing in a cereal bowl.
Japanese keyboard layout + kmonad is how I cope.

What are the differences between this and https://github.com/sezanzeb/input-remapper ?
I used this to remap the space key to be a modifier key and thought it might be useful for some.
Thanks keyd! You replaced a number of utterly shameful and janktacular python scripts.
Now I can finally reimplement spacebar heating!
