We're going to have to agree to disagree on that one. I love that macOS uses the command key for traditional CUA bindings, leaving control sequences open for me to continue using my Emacs style keybindings in all cocoa text widgets.
it's basically the same list, on a different key, which doesn't really change anything.
on Emacs it's only a matter of remapping those keys, if someone wanted to one could easily do it on every system. I've been forced to use Windows lately and thanks to Microsoft Powertoys I've remapped all the relevant keybindings to the ones I'm used to.
It took 2 minutes total.
I could have used the windows key, but why? what's the advantage? so that I could play CS online in a browser?
BTW on CS, if I remember correctly, to duck you simply press the left CTL, but in this version the key is C it is also very clearly specified in the help to use CTL only in full screen mode
so the entire thread is based on false information.
that's CUA. Which is a much nicer and saner standard than Emacs/Vi keybindings.
