Can't find F13-24 labels
You can create F13-F24 purely in software with key mapping tools. On Windows, one way is with the PowerToys Keyboard Manager: remap some unimportant keys to F13, F14, etc. Another way is with KMonad (cross platform), and define the keymap with KeyF13, KeyF14, etc.

How to remap built-in keybindings like `C-n` and `C-w`?
I could use some external key remappers like xremap. But I'm already using kanata and I can't use two key remappers for the same keyboards (kanata (or kmonad for that matter) doesn't allow application-specific remaps).

Is there a way that I can make Caps Lock behave like the Mod key when pressed with another key but behave like Caps Lock (as it does by default) if just pressed and released?
