I wanted a solution that would work in any desktop environment / window manager, so I combined cscarney's suggestion to use xautomation with the SXHKD (the simple X hotkey daemon). So I now recommend checking out Kinto which avoids such issues by remapping the keyboard proactively. Marco: Įdit: The simple approach I describe here has some drawbacks (mentioned below, most noticeably with sticky keys). XKBOPTIONS="caps:shift_nocancel,ctrl:alt,alt:win,win:ctrl"īACKSPACE="guess"' >/etc/default/keyboardĪnd finally, here's my GNOME and Marco keybinding dconf dumps: Modify /etc/defaults/keyboard: echo '# KEYBOARD CONFIGURATION FILE The extra key on many European keyboards: This is an otherwise unmodified /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/pc file): echo 'default partial alphanumeric_keys modifier_keys Modify X11 Keyboard symbol file for your keyboard (the important part here is the include "altwin(ctrl_alt_win)" before // End of modifier mappings. ! keycode 206 = NoSymbol Super_L NoSymbol Super_L ! keycode 204 = NoSymbol Alt_L NoSymbol Alt_L ! keycode 147 = XF86MenuKB NoSymbol XF86MenuKB ! keycode 108 = Alt_R Meta_R Alt_R Meta_R ! keycode 105 = Control_R NoSymbol Control_R ! keycode 37 = Control_L NoSymbol Control_L You'll have to modify the script below (or the individual files, if you've already made other modifications to them that you want to keep) to match whatever keyboard your computer has. I'm currently running Ubuntu MATE 19.10 (Eoan), and the keyboard is recognized as a pc105 xinitrc and as a custom startup command in startup applications and in /etc/default/ I was also having trouble getting ~/.Xmodmap to run on start (either by itself, as part of. settings for "Ctrl is mapped to Alt Alt is mapped to Win" but, and this is a very minor thing, I didn't like that my settings didn't apply until after I got past the greeter.

So it's been a slow-moving work in progress to figure out how to modify the system to match my muscle memory instead of relearning keyboard shortcuts.Īt first, I was just using the Keyboard > Layouts > Options.

To achieve this go to Settings -> Keyboard -> Look for Switch Windows under navigation section -> Double Click it and press Windows+Tab when pop up appearsĪll of my muscle memory is Mac based, and I use a Mac at work and in my personal life, but I happened across a Dell Latitude E7470 and figured I might as well give Linux a go on it (since my Macbook Pro is from 2012 and is pretty heavy, and I just didn't want to have to bother with \r\n line endings). One more thing I miss from macOS is the ability to switch windows with CMD+Tab (In this case Windows+Tab). Look for Tweaks application -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Additional Layout options -> Ctrl Position -> Select Swap Left Win with Left Ctrl This step will swap Windows key Behaviour to Ctrl and vice versa. Look for Tweaks application -> Keyboard and Mouse -> Additional Layout options -> Alt/Win behavior -> Select Control is mapped to Win keys and the usual Ctrl Keys.
If you don't like this, skip step 4 and go to step 5 Note that this will only change the behavior of WINDOWS key to CMD key and keeps CTRL key as same as before (you will have 2 CTRL keys). Open the list of applications by pressing Show Applications on at the left bottom.
