Command to rebind laptop shortcuts
On your Windows laptop, you can assign custom hotkeys to system commands by using the Keyboard Maestro or third-party tools. For Linux, you can modify keybindings directly in your configuration files or use a GUI tool to map keys.
You can likely achieve this using the keyboard remapper in PowerToys: https://github.com/microsoft/PowerToys
This also doesn't function... when I activated one of the provided shortcuts on my keyboard. PowerToys interpreted it as "S".
These keys go through an extension created by the keyboard maker, using a specific HID driver. Essentially, you require special software that can communicate with the manufacturer’s keyboard extension to detect those keys. It's quite challenging, particularly without any guidance, since this component is usually very proprietary. Consequently, no suitable tools exist. Even major companies like Razer and Logitech don’t offer solutions for their keyboards, despite having software that works—though it’s not very impressive and doesn’t encourage further development. Logitech is the only one to release something open-source within its HID extension, allowing a Linux tool to access certain features for their keyboards and mice, but even that remains limited. The information available is mostly a draft and outdated.
