## What it is
Capslock+ is a Windows efficiency tool built with AutoHotkey that repurposes the Caps Lock key as a modifier key, unlocking layered shortcuts for cursor movement, text manipulation, window binding, a math board, and a quick-launch bar (qbar). Hotkeys and custom key functions are configurable via an INI settings file and user AutoHotkey scripts.

## Use cases
- turn caps lock into a modifier key on windows
- remap keyboard shortcuts for productivity
- bind windows to hotkeys for quick switching
- run quick math calculations from the keyboard
- launch apps like listary with custom hotkeys
- customize hotkey functions with autohotkey scripts

## When to choose
- you're on Windows and want a free, scriptable keyboard efficiency layer
- you want to customize hotkeys via INI config or write your own AutoHotkey functions
- you prefer running from source with AutoHotkey installed

## When to avoid
- you're on macOS or want cross-platform support - use Capslox instead
- you don't want to install AutoHotkey or deal with antivirus false positives
- you need a polished GUI-based remapping tool rather than INI/script configuration
