@molly0xfff Thanks! I've got the Kinesis freestyle edge. and like it. And it's got programmable firmware/macros. so it's possible i could make this happen. I'm just always curious about a good keyboard.

@molly0xfff @gangrif https://docs.qmk.fm/features/caps_word, I presume? If I can map this to shift-capslock on my Keychron I will be SO HAPPY.

@molly0xfff@hachyderm.io what would one do with such a function? So One Can Type Like This?
Edit: I see. Now that I read it, it makes a lot of sense and I think I need to go turn this... -

@molly0xfff will never find a use for caps lock that's as good as a backspace key tbh
the regular backspace is too far away

@clarfonthey ten years ago i switched to keyboards that put backspace at the thumb and i’ve never looked back. capslock i’ve usually mapped to escape, although that’s the standard config for my new keyboard

@molly0xfff that's fair; the calculus is totally different if you allow moving keys wherever
pinky backspace is a decent compromise tbh

CAPS WORD
CAPS WORD
CAPS WORDyou cannot believe the contortion required to do that 2-handed with just my finger tips and pinky solidly planted on the SHIFT key the whole time. It's like Guitar Hero but for typing.

@molly0xfff @beep In 1994, I was in a high school keyboarding class (we were using PCs), and the guy next to me was unaware of the shift key, so he would press caps lock, type a capital letter, and press caps lock again to resume lowercase typing. That’s how he thought you got capital letters. I showed him what the shift key does, and he didn’t like it because he’d have to press both keys at the same time. Dude needed a “caps letter” key!
