For instance, F3 and F4 control volume, F9-F11 are used by Expose. If you want to use the Windows/Linux scheme on OS X you either a) have to use the fn key and change System Preferences / Keyboard / Use the F1-F12 keys to control software features. b) or add some useful secondary key for each blocked F shortcut. I don't know anyone who wants the Windows/Linux (Lazarus default) scheme under OS X without Ctrl-Meta mapping. If a Mac user chooses the Windows/Linux scheme it should be the Ctrl-Meta mapped. No need to add a separate scheme for that. The name "Default adapted to OS X" is wrong, because the "Default" under OS X is the "Apple Style" scheme. Maybe it would be better to change the scheme captions: *Lazarus (inspired by Delphi) *Classic (inspired by Turbo Pascal) *Mac OS X (Apple Style) *Mac OS X (Lazarus Style) And the schemes need an explanation (e.g. ShowHint). For example the "Lazarus" and "Classic" should give the hint about "System Preferences / ...". If there are no objections I can do that.
