My finger hurts too much when I press backspace button on my keyboard. (its too far) And as a broke student, I don’t have the cash to build myself a custom keyboard or something.
So I want to use left Alt button as backspace. Using xev I could find that keycode for left alt button is 64 and keycode for backspace button is 22. But I have no idea what to do after that
Any help appreciated
In case its required, I use Dvorak Programmer layout. I activate it using setxkbmap dvp in my i3wm config file. (not the most elegant way). I also have escape swapped with caps lock using setxkbmap -option caps:swapescape, in i3wm config.
can i3 do that?
Bindsym is for defining keyboard shortcuts. For remapping keys, I suppose Xmodmap or something should be used, but I failed to understand its syntax.
