Huh.  Where did you post that?  I found a nice review of ssh, but
nothing about keys.  In any case, I think the answer to the
original question (assuming GNU Emacs 21) is the first line of the
following (I through in some definitions for F1 and the cmd key):
;Mac keys
(setq mac-command-key-is-meta nil)
(global-set-key (quote [f1]) 'help-command)
(global-set-key [?\A-v] 'yank)           ; paste
(global-set-key [?\A-x] 'kill-region)    ; cut
(global-set-key [?\A-c] 'kill-ring-save) ; copy
