This has always been one of my favorite aspects of macOS (né OS X). GUI app shortcuts and Terminal control sequences are mutually exclusive where it matters and shared where it’s convenient. I find it very natural to navigate text in any app. I find it surprising that no Linux window manager has taken this approach.
- BiteCode_dev 1y agoMost terminal now accept ctrl + shit C/V as an alternative on linux.
- MangoToupe 1y agoThey could also not use Ctrl for gui keybindings and join the 21st century
- mixmastamyk 1y agoVery rare to have a Mac keyboard with Cmd on it on a PC. Only common on a Mac with Linux. There it can be reprogrammed but yes, should be better.
- int_19h 1y agoIf you connect an Apple keyboard to a PC, you'll find out that Cmd is the same as the Win key.
- mixmastamyk 1y agoIC, though the Win key has useful shortcuts assigned as well. But I suppose they could be sacrificed and/or remapped.
- rz2k 1y agoIt started with “System Software” or “Mac OS” (as opposed to “macOS”), since it was an advantage of using terminal software like ZTerm on the pre-OS X operating system. You could select and copy text without unintentionally sending a break.
