Of course there are no such keys on the Mac keyboard, so this might

Hmm, but the same thing is also applied to X11 and W32 when using a keyboard that does not have these keys. I guess such a situation is very common especially on W32.


Yes, I see. Obviously the issue is wider than OSX.


Looking at menu-bar.el and the definition of
menu-bar-enable-clipboard suggests that what I need to do now is
(define-key global-map [(alt x)] 'clipboard-kill-region)
(define-key global-map [(alt c)] 'clipboard-kill-ring-save)
(define-key global-map [(alt p)] 'clipboard-yank))
but this seems to have no effect.

Maybe you need the followings additionally: (global-unset-key [cut]) (global-unset-key [copy]) (global-unset-key [paste]) (global-unset-key [f20]) (global-unset-key [f16]) (global-unset-key [f18])


Yes. This does it (for posterity):

(global-unset-key [cut])
(global-unset-key [copy])
(global-unset-key [paste])
(global-unset-key [f20])
(global-unset-key [f16])
(global-unset-key [f18])
(global-set-key [(alt x)] 'clipboard-kill-region)
(global-set-key [(alt c)] 'clipboard-kill-ring-save)
(global-set-key [(alt p)] 'clipboard-yank)



I'm not familiar with cua-mode, but does that affect cut/copy/paste
operations?

Uh, I meant "the shortcuts of the menu items in question are not changed" by "that" in the sentence above. In other words, do you have any problems in cut/copy/paste operations currently?


As far as I can see, the operations themselves work fine.

Thanks for your time.
