Three modifiers are enough: Command, option, control. Easy on macOS, possible on Linux:
(setq mac-control-modifier 'super)
(setq mac-option-modifier 'meta)
(setq mac-command-modifier 'control)
I never have to resort to using two modifiers at the same time (e.g. Command + Option), as said 3 individual modifiers are plenty.
I also never use C-c or C-u prefixes, or other emacs-isms. Everything is a single combination, which is fundamentally simpler and more ergonomic.
For rarely-used commands, I just `M-x the-command`. Better than assigning complicated or easy-to-forget shortcuts.
- Scarbutt 8y agoso you rebind lots of key chords?
- vemv 8y agoThese are (almost) all of them, I'd say it's a bearable amount: https://github.com/vemv/.emacs.d/blob/master/lib/non-submodules/vemv.shortcuts.global.el https://github.com/vemv/.emacs.d/blob/master/lib/non-submodu... (also some are redundantly rebound, like left-key to left-char. I do it for... reasons)
- nickdrozd 8y agoDon't forget about the hyper key! (setq mac-function-modifier 'hyper)
