> For the love of all that is holy, stop abusing your hands! Remap caps-lock to escape
Personally I map it to nothing. On all the desktop/portable machines I regularly use (both Linux and Windows) cap-lock is effectively a dead key, and as all the servers I have reason to connect to are connected to using terminals running on one of those desktops/portables the same is true there too.
Why map it to nothing when you can put it to good use instead?
Now, I'm an Emacs user, so having Caps Lock as Control is even more important, but I've found it nice even in normal programs like Chrome. The only time it's inconvenient is when I'm using somebody else's different physical machine, but that happens sufficiently infrequently that it's worth the slight annoyance.
