Emacs use win+C for C-c, and Control-bindings are left to Windows. I.e., Win-c for C-c, Control-c for copy. > [GNU/]Linux users generally use windows keyboards, and they have a win key as well. If the goal is finger compatibility, then it would make sense to use the Command modifier on MacOS, and the Ctrl modified on other systems. The Lose key would only be a good choice in Emacs if it other programs use it too. -- Dr Richard Stallman (https://stallman.org) Chief GNUisance of the GNU Project (https://gnu.org) Founder, Free Software Foundation (https://fsf.org) Internet Hall-of-Famer (https://internethalloffame.org)
