Making the SHIFT key behave like that of Andriod/iOS
 
I want to disable the CAPS LOCK key and replace it by pressing SHIFT twice in quick successions (like you do in Android and iOS devices). Disabling the Caps Lock key is easy using xmodmap but is it possible to do what I want to do with the SHIFT key?

Hello,

If anything, you could write a script that waits on shift key input, less than a significant time, and enables the caps lock via system commands. I say it like that because I haven't seen any references out there on the internet (yet) about something like this. That would be nice though to have :)

Cheers,

Josh
