Put this file in ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.example.KeyRemapping.plist to | |
automatically remap your keys when macOS starts. | |
See https://developer.apple.com/library/archive/technotes/tn2450/_index.html for | |
the key "usage IDs". Take the usage ID and add 0x700000000 to it before putting it | |
