I have finally found a use for the caps lock key! (lemmy.smay.dev)

rcmd is a great tool that lets you switch apps using the right command key and the first letter of an app's name, but I found right command to be a bit out of the way to hit when my right hand was on the mouse. I did a bit of research, and found some resources on how to use hidutil to rebind keys, and bound caps lock to right command. Now I have a super useful quick app switcher key that is easy to use and doesn't punish me for accidentally hitting caps lock! Yay!

I can't live without caps lock acting as a mouse click. It's especially good on laptops, but i also use it with mouse sometimes, depending on if my hand lies on the keyboard or not
