Hello everyone, I have remap the grave accent key to the scroll lock key within Sharkeys. I also set the Joskey from the caps lock key to the scroll lock key. Within settings center, press control plus shift plus D then search for the word Jaws. This will allow you to remap your Joskey for the laptop keyboard layout from caps lock to Scroll lock. This helps with not having to worry about the caps lock key being eaten by the Mack OS.
