He recently dropped his beverage on his mac and the enter and backspace keys aren’t responding. I thought about creating a quick way to fill those keys.

Wipe the keyboard using isopropyl alcohol or place it in the dishwasher, ensuring it dries thoroughly before reinserting it. This appears to be a quick fix tool. https://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/6746/ykey

Don't place your friends' MacBook in the dishwasher. Apply this command: hidutil property --set '{"UserKeyMapping":[{"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingSrc":[KEY A],"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingDst":[KEY B]},{"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingSrc":[KEY B],"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingDst":[KEY A]}]}' Replace [KEY A] and [KEY B] with the desired keys. For swapping Enter with Shift, use: hidutil property --set '{"UserKeyMapping":[{"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingSrc":0x700000028,"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingDst":0x7000000E5},{"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingSrc":0x7000000E5,"HIDKeyboardModifierMappingDst":0x700000028}]}' To restore, repeat with the same source and destination.
