# the goal is to :
# 1. swap alt together
# 2. swap window and ctrl_left
# 3. swap menu and ctrl_right
# 4. swap escape and caps-lock
# third level is usually AltGr
# so seting lv3:lalt_switch means now third level is left alt
# also lv3:ralt_alt means now altGr is simple alt
# now ctrl:swap_lwin_lctl means swap left control and left win
# also ctrl:menu_rctrl means swap menu and right control
