Rebinding ESC to \

[Christopher Menzel]

I can only report that I have had no problems using Karabiner-Elements with LyX on three Macs — an M1 air, an M1 Macbook Pro (both running Monterey), and a 2014 iMac running Big Sur. I use emacs keybindings, in case that’s relevant.

On Windows it’s a bit more work. You can either edit the registry (instructions are easy to find), use the Microsoft Powertoys program, or use the much more powerful AutoHotkey scripting app. AutoHotkey requires you to create a text file with some quirky syntax but it’s a super powerful program that can do way more than  keys remapping. Again, exact instructions are easy to google.
