Please add support for the M1 Macbook Special keys, e.g. Spotlight, Launchpad, Mission Control.

After looking through the sources of some other applications, I managed to find this

namespace apple_vendor_keyboard {
constexpr value_t spotlight(0x0001);
constexpr value_t dashboard(0x0002);
constexpr value_t function(0x0003);
constexpr value_t launchpad(0x0004);
constexpr value_t reserved(0x000a);
constexpr value_t caps_lock_delay_enable(0x000b);
constexpr value_t power_state(0x000c);
constexpr value_t expose_all(0x0010);
constexpr value_t expose_desktop(0x0011);
constexpr value_t brightness_up(0x0020);
constexpr value_t brightness_down(0x0021);
constexpr value_t language(0x0030);
} // namespace apple_vendor_keyboard

I'm not sure if it'll be of use, I found this from https://github.com/pqrs-org/Karabiner-Elements and this https://eastmanreference.com/complete-list-of-applescript-key-codes

@gregbook thanks, very useful for me, I have tried long to find a simple way to remap launchpad(fn + F4) to volume up(fn + F12) while keeping f-key as it's own, BetterTouchTool and Karabiner-Elements can make it, but I don't want to install additional software. It wasn't resolved until I saw your reply.

Thanks Again!
