In macOS keyboard setting, you can reassign the Caps Lock key to be a <kbd>RIGHT CONTROL</kbd>:
This allows you to use the Caps lock like a hyper key in the sense now right and left keys are differentiable. In BetterTouchTool this is the recommended way to enable hyper key like functionality. BUT sadly Alfred cannot differentiate pressing left or right modifier keys, it triggers for both. It would be great if Alfred could distinguish left and right modifier keys.
In the meantime, is there a way to trigger e.g. Snippets or Clipboard managers with Applescript rather than depend on the Alfred keybindings? There is the search command where I could inject snip or clip:
But it won't go directly to the clipboard / snippet manager.
