		Zarel on Nov 13, 2019 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: 16-inch MacBook Pro I've always just typed constants and SQL with my pinky on the left Shift key. It feels easier than having to toggle Caps Lock all the time. In situations where I'm excited and messaging my friends to yell, I've typed entire sentences mostly holding down Left Shift. After some experimentation, it looks like even for normal sentence capitalization, I never use Right Shift unless I'm typing one-handed.

I wonder if there's a way to configure a double-press of left Shift to enable Caps Lock, like we're used to on phone keyboards.

Seems like Karabiner can handle that: https://github.com/pqrs-org/Karabiner-Elements/issues/346
