Poor Man's Kinesis Keyboard: The K'nexis Keyboard

Jon_Aquino writes "For programmers like me with wrist pain (the dreaded Emacs Pinky syndrome), I have made a simple keyboard modification that lets you press the Ctrl, Alt, and Shift keys with your thumbs. Just like those expensive $240 Kinesis keyboards, but made using a $30 K'nex building toy. (K'nex is like Lego but uses rods instead of bricks)."

  1. Once again: Bind CAPSLOCK to Control by tezza · · Score: 3, Informative
    1. Use Sharpkeys
    2. Put a mapping from Caps Lock to Left Control
    3. Use new capslock instead
    4. No more Emacs wanky or whatever you said.

    You won't remember life before this change. And no having to use vi ;)
