I wanted to remap CapsLock to work as escape, and I did it. What I did was: setxkbmap -option caps:escape But that method has a problem. Whenever I press CapsLock, on top it of working as escape, it also locks capitals. My question is, is there any way in which I can make CapsLock not lock capitals, but keep its new function? (and please, if possible, in case your method makes the LED light up, help me turn it off). I want this to work with vim, but I think it would be more appropriate to remap it at an OS level. As the saying goes, "I use Arch btw" Thank you very much. Edit: Finally solved it! setxkbmap -option caps:swapescape
