As usual, I suspect i3 has an easy way to do that, but I couldn't find any examples anywhere? Thanks a lot!Wed, 05 Nov 2014 07:35:09 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/4906/bind-caps-lock-to-the-compose-key/https://faq.i3wm.org/question/4906/bind-caps-lock-to-the-compose-key/?comment=4908#comment-4908This question is not about *i3*. Also, *i3* itself does not have an easy way to do that. Have a look at [this qestion on *Unix & Linux Stack Exchange*](https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/108207/how-to-map-caps-lock-as-the-compose-key-using-xmodmap-portably-and-idempotently)Wed, 05 Nov 2014 08:19:17 +0000https://faq.i3wm.org/question/4906/bind-caps-lock-to-the-compose-key/?comment=4908#comment-4908
