It should now be easier to remap keys and create keyboard shortcuts in the tool, and you should now be able to quickly disable the various changes. It should now also be possible to launch and close Keyboard Manager via a shortcut in the Command Palette.
The CursorWrap mouse tool, which launched back in January, also got a major update. The tool should now work better for users with multiple monitors: you can automatically disable the tool if only one monitor is connected, and you can configure the wrap function to work only when you hold down the Ctrl or Shift keys.
