In the progress of making this exactly like thw Windows counterpart

AHK really makes works well in Windows.

In Linux, there are a couple of ways to replace it.

Note: currently I'm using xmodmap to change the RAlt to an Escape Modifier. I might need to turn that off to have these methods work

Way 1: Via AHK community tool on Linux

Call a key combination based on other key combinations.

Way 2: Via LINUX integrated tools

xet key KEYSTROKE_SPECIFIER or xdotool key KEYSTROKE_SPECIFIER
