Bug#747083: ITP: xcape -- use a modifier key as another key



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: KAction <kaction@gnu.org>

* Package name    : xcape
  Version         : 1.1
  Upstream Author : Albin Olsson <albin.olsson@gmail.com>
* URL             : https://github.com/alols/xcape

  Programming Lang: C
  Description     : use a modifier key as another key
 xcape allows you to use a modifier key as another key when pressed and
 released on its own. Note that it is slightly slower than pressing the
 original key, because the pressed event does not occur until the key is
 released. The default behaviour is to generate the Escape key when Left
 Control is pressed and released on its own. (If you don't understand why
 anybody would want this, I'm guessing that Vim is not your favourite text
 editor ;)

This package is currently the only maintained of its kind, as far
as I know. I am using it around year, no problems occured.
