Caps to Shift Lock
Karabiner app should do that.
You can change the caps lock key to another key. ()
Karabiner-Elements
Karabiner-Elements is a powerful utility for keyboard customization on macOS Sierra or later.
Works with:
macOS Mojave (10.14)
macOS High Sierra (10.13)
macOS Sierra (10.12)
Figured it out with karabiner. Switched all numbers to their symbols for caps. I'm probably gonna switch the symbols as well as the numbers at some point. Thanks to buscar!
