Peace =E2=80=94Devon P.S. Perhaps the Emacs manual should have a stolen key chord appendix with recipes for regaining and remapping keys under MS, NS, X11, etc., = e.g., MacOSX Apple Menu > System Preferences... > Keyboard > Keyboard > = Modifier Keys... has user preferences to put the keys next to the bar, disable and so on. I even put left of by disabling and configuring a third party app. Gnu screen steals C-a so the -e switch deserves mention, e.g., screen -e '^^^^' sets the screen intercept character to Control-Caret which Emacs conveniently reserves for that purpose, Many "cloud"///////network sys admins use this a lot.
