I used dconf-editor to map caps lock to backspace, which works fine. i.e. ['caps:backspace']

But I'd like to map caps lock to ctrl_backspace, so that it deletes the whole word when pressed.

Is this possible? I tried ['caps:ctrl_backspace'] but it doesn't work.

  • the entries in that list are specific xkb options (see man xkeyboard-config for a list). caps:ctrl_backspace is not one of these options, hence the not working. you would have to add it: see eg https://askubuntu.com/a/969232/669043 – quixotic Jun 26 '18 at 09:50
