caps2esc - transforming the most useless key ever in the most useful one

options:
-h show this message and exit
-t delay used for key sequences (default: 20000 microseconds)
-m mode 0: default

`caps2esc` is an [_Interception Tools_][interception-tools] plugin. A suggested `caps2esc` is an [_Interception Tools_][interception-tools] plugin. A suggested

## Mouse button support
After _Interception Tools_ 0.3, `caps2esc` can work with mouse clicks. An
example configuration taken from my laptop:
```yaml
SHELL: [zsh, -c]
---
- JOB: mux -c caps2esc
- JOB:
- intercept -g $DEVNODE | mux -o caps2esc
- mux -i caps2esc | caps2esc | uinput -d $DEVNODE

DEVICE:

```
For more information on the topic, check the [_Interception Tools_
README][interception-tools] about usage of the `mux` tool and device specific
setups.
