# CapsLockNoDelay
Removes annoying delay when pressing the caps lock on Mac OS.

Confirmed working on MacOS Sequoia 15.5

## Built-in Alternative
Turns out there is a built-in alternative for deactivating the CapsLockDelay.
Thanks @decodism for pointing that out!
```bash
hidutil property --set '{"CapsLockDelayOverride":0}'
```
Just run this, no other steps are needed.

If that doesn't work, continue with the regular installation.
