Well, in a few days when Google have rerun their index we’ll see how much of a spammer you are or aren’t. Until then, have a good day, or something. You even apologized for the noise. Good, good…

@nitro2k01, you win. I’m a spammer who doesn’t read and didn’t write an app to solve a legitimate problem I had related to this post on Windows </flamewar>
@Luke, sorry about the noise.

*zzzip*
Did you hear that? That was the point of my comment that went right above your head. My whole point is that you’re a “spammer” who’s out hunting for SEO and that you probably didn’t even read the post that you left a comment to.

@nitro2k01: It’s easy to remap Caps Lock in most Linux distro’s. If you are used to it and ever need to work on a Windows box (which dominates the desktop market), then remapping becomes a chore. I’ve added to my post that it is meant for Windows, but step back for a bit and realise: touch typing is cross-platform compatible :).

Well, the next comment by me is mentioning a missing </sarcasm> tag, so go figure… I was mostly commenting the irony that you’re advertising a Windows tool on a blog post about how to remap caps lock on Linux. One might think that you didn’t even read the post before commenting. ;)

@nitro2k01, what OS are you on? It sounds like you’re on a Linux box. What compiler did you use, gcc? The source code was built in a Microsoft environment and is meant for Windows.

Hmmm, seems like WP nomnomnom’d the </sarcasm> tag… (Rewrote the tag characters with HTML entities for this post, which worked.)

Hey, FreshCode, I can’t run that binary, even if I do chmod +x on it. I tried recompiling it from source code too, but it wouldn’t compile. :/

I wrote a portable app to Remap Caps Lock to Backspace without rebooting. Now I can type on your keyboard. Download the free 3.50KB executable and the source from the link.
