How to select text when Arrows, Home, and End are mapped to Mode_Switch+Letter












0















I managed to map the arrow keys, Home, and End to Mode_Switch+Letter (where mode switch is Caps Lock) as explained in this answer:



Bind CAPS+hjkl to arrow keys; CAPS to ESC



though if I want to select text, for example a full line using Shift+End, I cannot do it when using the combination Shift+Mode_Switch+Letter. Is it there a solution?
