DoubleCommand

DoubleCommand is a software for Mac OS X that serves as a kernel extension. It has been designed to enable you to remap keys, allowing you to redefine the way your keyboard works. The software is commonly used when switching between a Mac and a PC keyboard—swapping the Alt (Option) and Windows (Command or Apple) keys. This is due to the fact that the two keyboards have these keys in opposite positions.

With DoubleCommand, the process of making a PC keyboard more comfortable to work with on a Mac becomes easy and quick. It enables you to switch these keys seamlessly, without requiring complex setup processes. The software will allow you to remap any key to any function. This means that you can customize your keyboard to work the way you need it to.

Interestingly, DoubleCommand got its name from its original use, which was to give old PowerBooks an additional Command key. This was where the enter key was located - hence the name, DoubleCommand. Overall, DoubleCommand is a highly useful and intuitive software that delivers a straightforward and attractive solution. If you are considering remapping keys on your Mac, this software is an excellent option that is definitely worth trying out.
