Swap caps lock and control on your keyboard
https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/RepeatedStrainInjury Cheesus Crust… just switch editors already.
Spoken like someone without foot pedals.
The one about sitting posture is fun, too.
M-x Ctrl-? Why?
Re-binding caps lock is such a nice thing. I am a Perl programmer (yes, really), though not in emacs (vim all the way!)
I changed caps locks to $ and @ with shift decades ago. Especially since in my native layout they are awkward to reach.
How about get a mechanical keyboard with modified switches for your combining keys? I’ve been wanting to do that for mine for gaming.
Svalboard. Not am EMACS user (it’s a fine editor/Lisp interpreter) but, even nice mechkb isn’t necessarily going to prevent RSI or exacerbation of existing conditions. Best to change to a text-entry device that is designed with humans in mind.
Seems legit … wonder what the vi developer had to say.

couldn’t post as they’re still trying to escape their selfmade hell. /s
:q!
Evil mode, god mode, devil mode, meow mode all exist to fix this problem
I compared the up-down key work with emacs against another popular editor, and the bad news for the other editor is that it costs 10% more up-down keyboard manipulation to do the same open-edit-close file work.
The difference was, where emacs used modifiers around a keystroke, the other editor used a few discrete keystrokes in series to get its work done; which is totally okay. It just used more.
So, this trolling is funny, but it’s not the worst offender. Nope, not naming the other one, or the Mafia will what-about me to death.
Ask me about RAM usage next!
