    Hi!

    I m desperately trying to remap the Apostrophe key to "Forward Delete" on my shiny new Macbook.
    So far I did not find a way to do this. :-(

    I could not find an option in the tool DoubleCommand.
    Maybe you can help me.
    Here is a photo of the german keyboard:

    I am trying to remap the key directly to the left of the backspace key.
    Can this be done somehow?

    Thanks for your help :)

    Greetings from Munich, Germany

      DoubleCommand does not support this right now, and until I or someone has the time to invest in expanding the number of features it can support, we can't add a lot of little used features like this one.

      However, if you know how to write C code, it's not very hard to add a small extra section in the code just for yourself, and provide the feature you are after in your own build.

      On the other hand, you could consider using fn+delete, or use the DoubleCommand shift+delete features instead, if they work for you.
