Ergoemacs-mode: ergonomic keybindings in Emacs to reduce RSI
- wcummings 11y ago>Use the commonly bound keys familiar to most people today. Ctrl+C for copy Disgusting

- xahlee 11y agohi, you might give it a try. Many who used emacs for 10 to 20 years wrote to say they absolutely love it and switched. You can see them in the testimonials section. Matthew Fidler introduced a theme system, so you can change any key you don't like, or disable the Windows style shortcuts. He's also quick to answer questions or fix bugs. Almost always within a day. PS Matthew Fidler has been working on the project in the past 4 years. It's also part of GNU Elpa. :D
