If I remap CapsLock to Escape, then how will I enable cruise control for awesome mode?

But seriously, I have hitting escape muscle memory engrained, I cannot remap it to any key because I won't ever think to hit capslock even if it's ergonomically "better"



I thought that, remapped it, and it turned out to be incredibly easy to swap over. I think it's because it's so much nicer to use.


My point is that it's NOT nicer to use for me.

I just instinctively did it to see my motion and it's an awkward feeling for me to move my left pinky over to the capslock key, definitely something I have to be mindful of doing to make happen and probably will take a long time for me to get used to.

Meanwhile, I actually extend my ring finger up and barely touch the escape and move it back down, all of that is very comfortable for me and I can do it without looking 100% of the time and never miss it.
