Guide on how to remap Keyboard keys on macOS

Update 17.10.2024: macOS 15 no longer requires root privileges for hidutil, you need to add hidutil and Terminal to 'Input Monitoring' in Settings/Privacy & Security tab.

Update 13.04.2024: On macOS 14.2 hidutil requires root privileges.

If you have a mac with an INT (ISO) keyboard you might want to change the ± key to ~. During my research I found that the information on this topic is not at all centralized. I prefer this option because it does not involve installing new software.

With macOS 10.12 Sierra Apple introduced hidutil as a tool to remap keyboard keys. See TN2450.

Terminological Note

"OpenPGP" refers to the OpenPGP protocol, in much the same way that HTML refers to the protocol that specifies how to write a web page. "GnuPG", "SequoiaPGP", "OpenPGP.js", and others are implementations of the OpenPGP protocol in the same way that Mozilla Firefox, Google Chromium, and Microsoft Edge refer to software packages that process HTML data.

security and hardening options for systemd service units

A common and reliable pattern in service unit files is thus:

NoNewPrivileges=yes
PrivateTmp=yes
PrivateDevices=yes
DevicePolicy=closed
ProtectSystem=strict

With heightening concern regarding the state of internet privacy (fuelled in part by the passing of the Investigatory Powers Act in the UK), I have set up a VPN server on the virtual server I have hosted with Mythic Beasts. This uses strongSwan and certificate-based IKEv2 authentication.

Assumptions:

• Debian Jessie server already set up and accessible via debian.example.com, a public IPv4 of 203.0.113.1 and a public IPv6 of 2001:db8::1
• Client username of me
• Clients are running the latest versions of macOS and iOS (Sierra and 10 respectively at the time of writing)
• No need to support any other operating systems (although the setup is easily translated)

For automated deployment of a similar setup, albeit Ubuntu-based and using ansible for deployment, I recommend you take a look at Algo VPN. I used that project as a basis for my configuration.
