Continue mapping Escape to Caps Lock like we always do :)

The escape character is ^[ and can always be typed that way.

Have you noticed the correspondence between these alternate terminal incantations and the resultant codes they produce? If an ASCII table is laid out in columns of 32, they are on the same row, e.g.
(3) ETX <-- C (67)
(4) EOT <-- D (68)
(8) BS <-- H (72)
(27) ESC <-- [ (91)
I was happy to find some order in what previously seemed arcane stuff.

Remap caps lock -
To be honest, that super-thin row of Esc/F-keys on the 11" Air has been totally useless anyway for real typing, so if I go from there to a new Pro, I wouldn't really miss that stuff.

Using escape in vi is an anti pattern. Use control-[

Why is it an anti-pattern? Surely a single press is more efficient than two?

`imap jj <Esc>` as there are basically no words with two consecutive j's (I use hh for colemak instead)
