xidlehook VS xremap

With xidlehook you can do that:

You can use xautolock, or xidlehook

Try xidlehook. Use the script given in README.

Not sure if you've seen xidlehook but it works well and is also written rust. I see it hasn't been updated in a while, maybe it can inspire you.

Could likely use https://github.com/jD91mZM2/xidlehook to dim it just before suspend, then watch xprintidle until it goes below 1000 to show that you're active again, and bring the brightness up

I'm using this successfully: https://github.com/k0kubun/xremap

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).

If they are, it seems that https://github.com/k0kubun/xremap should also work.

k0kubun/xremap worked on ChromeOS (developer mode).

As far as binding the J,K,H,L keys, have you considered using xremap? I use it the same way for a VIM like modifier.

I find xremap to be much friendlier.

Have a look at xremap for a general solution (X, Wayland, ...) to set up global key chords

keyd looks pretty nice. I have been using xremap (https://github.com/k0kubun/xremap/) to do the following remaps:
