10.4: Remap the Caps Lock key to a simple Shift key
Authored by: devlogic on Jun 15, '05 02:42:59PM
robg - it seems to work as is, with one exception; step 2 gives an error if entered as is; I think there's a " ." missing at the end of that particular step.
Since the directions (which I just followed; they work great, except for the little light on my iBook's caps lock key) have you creating a copy of the Keyboard.nib file, then changing file names around so that the "copy" is the "active" nib, there's no need to move the modified file back to the proper location, since you're editing it in place.
I'd probably recommend doing a sudo chmod o-w . at the end, though, just to keep the files safe from further modification...
