awesome-wayland VS xkeysnail

Yup. Here is an example list of things you can swap around. https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland

You didn't say whether your current config is based on X or Wayland therefore two links with Wayland applications. Are we Wsyland yet and awesome wayland

plenty others of all sorts.

> auto keyboard/mouse scripting with xdotool

There's a few tools for this: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland#tools

> not have unnecessary mouse/keyboard to monitor delay

There's none that I can notice. Mice cursor are rendered with hardware support

Here's one of many forks of an awesome-wayland repository that lists what's going on: https://github.com/natpen/awesome-wayland

customization isn't killed, it just takes time to adapt to a new protocol. check out all the stuff you can do with wayland

More specifically, see: awesome-wayland and arewewaylandyet. Sway-addons also has interesting stuff in it, like wl-clipboard which is mostly compatible with Klipper.

FYI: You can enable them in Gnome with Gnome-Tweaks. Apparently a very recent version of Gnome dropped this functionality for reasons that are beyond my understanding (but that's often the case when I look at the decisions that the Gnome devs make).

However, getting the Control -> Command/Super thing to work is much trickier. The best way is to use this: https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail

However when I tried that, I ran into all kinds of weird behaviours all over the OS. Also, it doesn't work with Wayland.

If the likes of https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail/issues/43 are still a going concern then it's not quite as "everywhere" as one would like, and I presume that issue is a fundamental one (i.e. it doesn't sound like XKeySnail gets first refusal on key events).

And I use XKeySnail to have the basic Emacs keys everywhere. I'm sure there are others, but it does enough to keep me happy.

https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail or the fork of it, I forget it's name, will allow you to do the same as exwm's simulation keys with any window manager.

Thanks for the suggestion guys. I decided to go with xkeysnail ( https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail/ ). So far so good.

Similar options for Linux users are keyd and xkeysnail

https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail or something similar ?

Bind everything you want: https://github.com/mooz/xkeysnail

xkeysnail is not bad in the two sense, however, there are some application do can distinguish them, say, chrome and neovide

If you're using x11, there's xkeysnail
