Ah, well, I wasn’t aware of that distinction but, as a decades-long emacs user, I’ve re-mapped everything in such a way that I only ever use the Ctrl key — by which, of course, I mean my remapped CapsLock key, as that is where God intended Ctrl to be! :-) > * cursor movement is slightly different to match what is expected on a mac, > but this is controllable through "Preferences>Editing>Use mac-style cursor > movement". Right, but alas no non-blinking cursor option. -chris -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
