Exchange Ctrl and CapsLock on Mavericks
I got Microsoft Natual Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 US key layout version. I use this a couple of day and begin to think that I would like to exchange CapsLock and Ctrl. CapsLock is left side of A, and Ctrl is left and right bottom. I never type right bottom ctrl ever and maybe in the future, so I can ignore this key. But I type left bottom ctrl more than 100 time everyday, and this is a little bit hard.
Mac OS provides us to change some meta key, CapsLock, Ctrl, Option, Command. The step is below.
- Open System Preferences
- Click Keyboard
- Click Modifier Keys...
- Re-Select keyboard if the keyboard I would like to change keys not selected
- Change Caps Lock Key from "Caps Lock" to Control
I never use Caps Lock key, so I changed only Caps Lock. I define Control key as Control.
I know this configuration by US仕様のキーボードのMacでControlキーとCaps Lockキーを入れ替える方法 / Inforati, thx!
