Subject: Screencast Key Display with Capslock <-> CTRL respect?
Date: Mon, 23 Feb 2015 09:09:52 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87sidw1zyn.fsf@gmail.com> (raw)

I've been making screen casts for emacs and am looking into programs that display the keys being used. I'm on Linux with KDE, which effects some of the options. I was pretty happy with the way KeyMon works, and it was available in the repos; but then I noticed that although it has dedicated display positions for the CTRL key, it still registers my Capslock as a capslock stroke although I have it bound as CTRL. This means that it doesn't properly capture any commands normally using L-CTRL for my viewers. I'm sure there are other emacs screen casting folks out there; do you have a suggestion for getting a key monitor program that will properly interpret my Capslock as a CTRL? Or of changing a setting to make that happen in KeyMon? I don't know much about key-capturing on a system level, but 
 apparently KeyMon is grabbing things at a lower level than KDE.
