Remap Modifier Keys

After my experience in university, I recommend the following adjustments to Windows and Linux keyboards:

• Swap the CapsLock key and the Esc key: make the Esc common key triggered by the pinkie

• Use Mac-style left modifier key (control, option, command) order: 'Super', 'Alt', 'Ctrl' Use thumb to trigger the Ctrl key

This schema is conducive to improving typing and triggering shortcuts, and reducing muscle strain.

How to copy?

• Click copy button at top right corner
• Three times click to copy one line

In Linux, paste by middle click.

GNOME

gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.input-sources xkb-options "['caps:swapescape', 'ctrl:swap_lalt_lctl_lwin']"

Maybe relogin if not work.

Note: fcitx5's XCB add-on may conflict with this, and you need to configure fcitx5-configtool to disable 'Allow overwrite system XKB Settings'.

KDE

kwriteconfig5 --file kxkbrc --group Layout --key ResetOldOptions true

Relogin to take effect.
