If you're on mac, Karabiner is the best tool for remapping. I use it to remap normal keys to hyper keys. So pressing on `a` key together with `f` will do control + f and things like this.

This is amazing, I can't believe I haven't seen this before, mapping caps_lock to right command and using rcmd for app switching is amazing, previously I just had caps set to esc and used left_command + esc as a global toggle for terminal.

I tried remapping a normal letter key's (a) long press to a command+a but it seems to actually trigger the letter "a" before triggering the modifier.

Karabiner is amazing and unfortunately I haven't found an equivalent on Linux. I use Karabiner for the following usecase.

* Mapped both caps lock and return key when they are clicked with another key to act as Ctrl. When they are clicked alone without combination then they work as ususal.

Awesome app, though unfortunately it doesn't support proper alpha-to-hyper modifiers that wouldn't interfere with typing (tweaking various delays help, but still not equivalent), and lacks some in-app context like whether you're in a text field within an app

On my Macbook Pro, the only thing I use Karabiner for is to map my right Option key to a true "Enter" key (as opposed to the "Return") key. I'm sure I'm under-utilizing it, but it works great for that.

Doesn't that get triggered if you type "after" fast enough?
