But one of its main features is exactly the one that bothers you: multiplex cleverly "C-c/C-x as Copy/Cut" and "C-c/C-x as prefix keys". This said, under Mac OS X you shouldn't need this multiplexing since you should expect Cmd-c/Cmd-x to do Copy/Cut (of course, if Cmd is mapped to Meta, you get clashes with M-x and M-c, where the M-c clash is probably minor, but the M-x one is more annoying, tho it's easy to move M-x's command to some other key).
