Control to ESC not working with xkbmap #86

Closed QiangF closed 6 years ago

QiangF commented 7 years ago

After change capslock to control with

setxkbmap -layout "us(intl)" -option  -option ctrl:nocaps

or

setxkbmap -layout "us(intl)" -option  -option caps:ctrl_modifier

I tried xcape setting like this

xcape -e 'Control_R=Escape;Shift_L=Control_L|x;Shift_R=Control_L|c;Alt_L=Alt_L|x;Alt_R=Alt_L|c'&

xcape -e 'Control_L=Escape;Shift_L=Control_L|x;Shift_R=Control_L|c;Alt_L=Alt_L|x;Alt_R=Alt_L|c'&

Neither works.

This works on my setup:

 setxkbmap -option 'caps:ctrl_modifier'
 xcape -e 'Control_L=Escape;Control_R=Escape'
