  1. Autohotkeys does not work well for remapping keys, especially modifiers.
    Sharpkeys has been working well for my French keyboard : I swapped LCtrl and Caps-Lock, then put LCtrl on Apps and mapped Apps to Hyper key in emacs.
    Very good and well documented article on the topic.

    1. indeed Frabric, for swapping key purpose I do recommend Sharpkeys which functions in lower level comparing to autohotkeys.
      My Finnish keyboard AltGr is not recognized by Sharpkeys, so I needed to figure out all those hex values in the register files. Luckily it all went out well after 2hr studies.
