AutoHotkey script to map Caps Lock to Escape when it's pressed on its own and Ctrl when used in combination with another key, à la Steve Losh. Adapted from one that does something similar with the Ctrl Key on the Vim Tips Wiki (http://vim.wikia.com/wiki/Map_caps_lock_to_escape_in_Windows?oldid=32281). (Plus contribs from @randy909 & @mmikeww.)

I make a script for autohotkey v2.
https://gist.github.com/ulic-youthlic/c8efd1d8cd5c59559403ded7e5b44833
Caps to Ctrl+Esc... If just pressed 1 time is gonna act as ESC If used with another key is gonna act as CTRL Allow Shift + Ctrl combinations
#IfWinNotActive,ahk_group WorkIn *CapsLock:: Send {Blind}{Ctrl Down} cDown := A_TickCount Return *CapsLock up:: If ((A_TickCount-cDown) < 150){ Send {Blind}{Ctrl Up}{Esc} } Else { Send {Blind}{Ctrl Up} } Return #IfWinNotActive
where do you paste this script?
Caps to Ctrl+Esc... If just pressed 1 time is gonna act as ESC If used with another key is gonna act as CTRL Allow Shift + Ctrl combinations大写为 Ctrl+Esc... 如果只按 1 次将充当 ESC 如果与另一个键一起使用将充当 CTRL 允许 Shift + Ctrl 组合
#IfWinNotActive,ahk_group WorkIn *CapsLock:: Send {Blind}{Ctrl Down} cDown := A_TickCount Return *CapsLock up:: If ((A_TickCount-cDown) < 150){ Send {Blind}{Ctrl Up}{Esc} } Else { Send {Blind}{Ctrl Up} } Return #IfWinNotActivewhere do you paste this script?你把这个脚本粘贴到哪里?
If you want to run this script, you should look into AutoHotKey. in this example, you need to install the correct version of the runtime, save the script as an .auk file, and run it using the runtime.

Allow Shift + Ctrl combinations
