Maximize your PC Productivity with AutoHotKey (2024)

this is absolute disaster, when you use CAPSLOCK with you pinky finger, other keypress should be made with right hand, and most certainly not with the key that should be pressed with pinky finger (im talking about Q here)

I did not say this is for everybody, if this feels wrong for you then you can adapt the script to your liking or make something that suits you more. I was trying to figure out what you mean and tried this: 1)from a standard resting position: left index finger resting on F and right index finger resting on J 2)tried pressing CAPSLOCK + Q: pressed CAPSLOCK with pinky and Q with ring finger, moving my index finger over from F to E, because I sometimes use Q and E in combination. The movement was minimal compared to moving my right hand from J to where HOME/END keys are on the keyboard, or even worse, if the right hand is on the mouse, from the mouse to the keyboard. The idea is to minimize movement and not intertwine fingers. I am not saying this is the absolute right way to do it but it's rather something I personally enjoy using and has made my computer typing and browsing experience more enjoyable :)

@@filipbudzynski3760 Thank for the suggestion. If you don't mind, please share some relevant resources for getting more insight. I find myself using my laptop a lot without the extra QMK keyboard and the script from this video helps a ton.
