Hi, Alonzo: Thanks for this, but I think I do see where to make the change. I was actually more interested in what people mapped for insert, which keys they chose. I'm new enough to the Mac environment that I wouldn't want to remap something I'd later miss. I suppose, if it's limited to the specific vm, that won't be too hard to manage, though.
