I made CapsLock the Hyper-key via gnome-tweaks


Sorry, I have only the german screenshot. "Feststelltaste" means "CapsLock"


gnome-tweaks-capslock-de


Now I would like to map



  • Hyper-u to Arrow-Up

  • Hyper-n to Arrow-Down

  • Hyper-i to Page-Up

  • Hyper-m to Page-down

  • Hyper-j to Pos1

  • Hyper-ö to End (on my german layout this character is right to "l")


It would be great if this could be done by doing config in $HOME.


For example via .xmodmaprc

Every solution is welcome


I am open for every solution which works. Maybe there is way to solve this via eBPF or an own uinput-device?


Background


I like the then fingers touch typing. I am happy with my QWERTZ layout for a-Z. But these special keys always make me leave the comfortable position with the pointer fingers on "F" and "J".

If you don't mind a GUI application, input-remapper has always worked well for me with various input devices and is also available on APT.


It runs as a daemon in the background and reinjects your inputs using evdev, so there's probably a more elegant solution out there, but could be useful as a last resort or if you want to change input mappings often.
