CapsLockNoDelay
Removes caps-lock key activation delay for fast typers.
CapsLockNoDelay eliminates the default activation delay of the Caps Lock key on macOS, allowing fast typers to toggle the key without the built‑in pause. The utility works on recent macOS versions, including Sequoia 15.5, and can be installed either by downloading the pre‑built application or via Homebrew. After installation the app is added to Login Items and granted the necessary accessibility and input‑monitoring permissions, after which it runs silently in the background.
The program requires no user interface; it simply modifies the system’s CapsLockDelay setting, either through a built‑in `hidutil` command or by running the app, which applies the override automatically. Users who need immediate Caps Lock response—such as programmers, writers, or anyone who types quickly—can benefit from the reduced latency.
CapsLockNoDelay is open‑source, free, and classified as stable, making it a straightforward solution for macOS users seeking to remove the Caps Lock delay without additional configuration.
