Ctrl-c and Ctrl-[ are my favorite -- once you remap caps lock to control (so that control is where it was when these interfaces were designed), you have a simple, 2-hand chorded escape with minimal stress on the keys.
Does anyone here remap backspace to something else? My right wrist has been particularly RSI sensitive in the last month or so and I've noticed that reaching for backspace tends to set it off.
Highly recommended for Linux or Windows desktop computers if you have RSI trouble. A bit unwieldy for laptops though. I use both and switching isn't a big issue (unlike switching national keyboards, which drives me crazy). It doesn't quite have enough modifiers for Mac - can't have both left and right versions of shift, alt, ctrl and command.
Vi users have to swap the up-arrow and the down-arrow since they use the same fingers as j and k, but reversed. However, it's pretty easy to remap, and it happens in the keyboard so it works everywhere.
