This is one of the reasons I love my Mac, though it’s total happenstance it works this way.
Since the Mac uses Command-c/v it doesn’t interfere with the standard Unix terminal’s Control functions. But you can easily trigger the Mac’s functions (such as Commamd-f for find) without worry.
It sidesteps the problem Windows users have that used to frustrate me too.
Edit: I looked it up. Early Macs didn’t even have a control key. It was added later for terminal client compatibility.

- e-clinton 4y agoMy keyboard has a delete key. Do you mean on laptops?
- DimmieMan 4y agoTheir full keyboards have it in the usual spot, laptops and the smaller keyboards have a "delete" key that's actually backspace. fn + "delete" gives you actual delete.
- NonNefarious 4y agoLaptops and even the small keyboards that they're shipping with some desktops. It's ridiculous.
