Caps Lock Behaviour Disabled in Gnome
I prefer dual-key-remap[0], it maps caps to escape when tapped and control when pressed with other keys.

Survey: What's your favorite remapping of Esc?
https://github.com/ililim/dual-key-remap this has been working like magic for me

How to make my pinkie and vanilla keybindings get along?
All you need is dual mode modifiers - remap your spacebar to act as Ctrl when pressed and generate space symbol when released. You can make it with xcape on linux and with dual-key-remap on windows. It is also something for macos, but I never used it.

Mapping Ctrl to Caps Lock
I use this on Windows: https://github.com/ililim/dual-key-remap, and it works pretty well.

janus-key: give keys a double function (normal keys as modifiers)
I am long term fan of Space-Ctrl dual role key - must have for any emacser imo. Now I'm using https://github.com/ililim/dual-key-remap on windows and https://github.com/alols/xcape on Linux. Are your app has any advantages against these two?

Space bar as control
You definitely should try dual-key-remap! I also struggled with Dual, and it was a big relief to find that gem. Just place file named config.txt near executable with that content: remap_key=SPACE when_alone=SPACE with_other=CTRL

Set Capslock to Meta Key on Windows
I used to use uncap to remap caps lock. Now I use dual-key-remap so I can have ctrl and escape on the same key. Both have worked well for me and don't require admin rights.

Just mapped my caps lock to escape for the first time...
For Windows, this was the fan favourite over AHK. https://github.com/ililim/dual-key-remap

Shortcut for rotating canvas by 15° left or right without a mouse
I don't like using my mouse while drawing and I couldn't find how to do this anywhere, but luckily when I was about to give up I achieved it! So, for this you'll need a program called SharpKeys. You can download it here: https://github.com/randyrants/sharpkeys/

Caps Lock Behaviour Disabled in Gnome
Sharpkeys can swap keys, the readme says as much:
> Things that SharpKeys will do:
> ...
> Allow you to swap two keys with each other - e.g. you can swap Left Windows with Left Control and vice versa
I do have a vague recollection of Sharpkeys previously saying that it couldn’t, but that I tried and it worked. Long time since I last used Windows though.

Total Commander
> Total commander isn’t FOSS.
I'm aware of that. There are lots of FOSS equivalents, though. Including, I believe, on Windows. Wikipedia lists 23 of which I think -- haven't checked -- the majority are FOSS.

> Ironically windows 11 can’t do vertical taskbars.
True. Easily fixed with Explorer Patcher, though. Which, ironically, is FOSS.
> And where in windows can you change the system shortcuts?
I don't use it much any more and stopped early this century, so my knowledge here may be out of date.
When I do, I use SharpKeys to put a GUI on editing the relevant registry keys for keyboard remapping.

In the NT 3.x era, it was the properties of every EXE's PIF file. So I set Crtl+Alt+(initial) to open my most used apps. Ctrl+Alt+D for DOS, E for Excel, W for Word, etc.
This still works with limitations under Win9x through to XP, which is when I jumped off the Windows ship.
But mostly it's about learning the many many built-ins.

Menu Key in Adobe Premiere (Windows)
This application can be used to do that. You'll notice it can't see the menu key either if you try to autodetect it, so you need to set it manually. It's listed as:
