[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Aditya Garg <gargaditya08@xxxxxxxx>

This patch allows users to swap the control and command keys. This can be
useful for the Mac users who are used to using Command instead of Control
in macOS for various commonly used shortcuts.
