It's true, even though most people don't go "full RMS", he's clearly a force for good in the Universe, and he's fighting the good fight for the benefit of all of us.
RMS has done a lot, but perhaps his main role now is to encourage others to do things. In the good fight, people shouldn't thank him for his service, but rather, join up.

Oh, right. I have control remapped on caps lock, so it's caps lock + [.
This is where https://github.com/alols/xcape is amazing. I'm not sure, but I think Karabiner can be configured to act the same way.
How can I close it?
This is pretty dope, but I'm terrified about the fact that Firefox lets it take over Ctrl+L, Ctrl+1, or any other way (that I can find, at least) of breaking out of Vim with a keyboard aside from closing the tab with Ctrl+W - which is even more terrifying since I use that in Vim a ton, too :O ...but this is pretty cool :D
I had a similar problems with Emacs in the browser (I stumbled upon it a long time ago). The keys I needed the most were also the keys intercepted by the browser.
But seriously, this is great work.

Both alternatives that I mentioned, Flash and PNaCL did have open source implementations available, it is just a matter of following the links I posted. WASM doesn't offer any security over internal data corruption as buffer access within linear memory aren't validated for data bounds or nullability. So it is possible, for a WASM module generated from C or C++ code, to provide input data to its functions in such a wa…

Where’s the escape key on my iPhone?
Very useful for SSH and termux.

This is incredible. I think I needed this about 40 years when typing on a small Teletype (non-ASR33) without an escape key.
The reason is interesting as well. Paraphrasing from this blog post[0] When you format the ASCII table in four columns, you can see `ESC` and `[` on the same row. Holding `CTRL` essentially ~lops off the first three bits~ subtracts 64, resulting in `ESC` ... ... 0011000 CAN 0111000 8 1011000 X 1111000 x 0011001 EM 0111001 9 1011001 Y 1111001 y 0011010 SUB 0111010 : 1011010 Z 1111010 z 0011011 ESC 0111011 ; 1011011 […
No, it inverts the 7th bit (or subtracts 64).
The Linux `ascii(7)` man page has a similar table, but with 2 columns. The first 32 control characters listed there have their "caret notation" character in the opposite column.
