config VS kanata

I actually quite like the config, seems intuitive! Though, I am comparing it to this abomination, so I might have low expectations here :-)

4) For scripts you put for everyday use in ~/bin, I've found busybox style multipurpose binary invaluable. You put all your scripts into a single Rust binary, and than hard-link this binary under different names in PATH, so that the first argv is actually the name of subcommand. Here's how the infra works for my scripts, and here's an example script.

1) Invest into application-level profiling, using tracing::span! for collection and something like tracing_tracy or tracing_span_tree for visualization. This should give you high-level logical profile. 2) If on Linux, learn a bare minimum of perf for collecting data (the extent of my knowledge about perf is basically this script https://github.com/matklad/config/blob/master/tool/src/prf.rs). Use neither flamegraph.pl nor cargo flamegraph for visualization, use https://profiler.firefox.com/ instead.

And, while a spam links, here’s a link with more links: https://github.com/matklad/config/blob/master/links.adoc

Gotta give a shoutout to kanata[1] which I have used daily for years at this point after giving up on QMK-powered keyboards.

QMK itself is great, but I was never able to find a non-columnar split ISO keyboard to use it with. Eventually I reluctantly settled on the Logitech K860[2] and I'm now happily using my favourite features from QMK with kanata at the software level.

[2]: If I'm behind the times and there is now a QMK-compatible keyboard that looks like this, please let me know!

This is not in Emacs, but if I can't modify my keyboard's firmware (e.g on a laptop), I use Kanata https://github.com/jtroo/kanata. It works by creating a virtual keyboard in Linux (and uses a filter driver or process hooks in Windows), so it can work in any program as they just see a normal keyboard.

Besides the better caps word (by the way, you can have it in software in Win/Linux apps like https://github.com/jtroo/kanata/blob/main/docs/config.adoc#c...) you can also toggle capslock with e.g. a double tap while having on-hold functionality to the more useful Control, so you still wouldn't need to hold any modifier key

One particular approach that one might find it interesting is how the configuration is laid out (using S-expression from Lisps).

Kanata[0] is amazing. It support both Linux and Windows. But I'm yet to try it on windows because my majority work is on linux.
