How to make caps-a as same ctrl-a?

17hao commented 1 year ago

After installation I get keybinds as those of macOS in Linux. Can I remap caps to ctrl so that I can tap caps-a to move cursor to the head of line?

You can, that behavior is defined in ~/.config/kinto/kinto.py & the sections of the code that mentions 'define_conditional_modmap'.
