Or Ctrl.

Props to Apple, which in 2022 still provides an easy option to remap caps more or less straight in the keyboard configuration. And actually provides that even on iOS (which I was stoked to discover), though the remapping options are limited.

And boo to microsoft, the only significant OS where that’s not a native option, you need the powertoys and in my experience it’s quite unreliable: regularly capslock will revert and you have to go into the ‘toys and flip it off and on again.

I’ve never looked but I guess it’s some sort of registry setting which every update resets, without the ‘toys being aware of the info?

That's why I remap pause to caps lock. It's unfortunate. At least it works for things running as admin now
