#alt_meta ?
- Maps to alt on OSX, ctrl on Win/Linux.
- Can only bind either #meta or #alt_meta + key, or both must bind to same
action.
- Can only be applied to a very limited set of keys, (usually those employed in
navigation).
(here are *alot* of different keyboard layouts on Mac using alt + key to
generate crucial characters, allowing alt + key as shortcut in general is bound
to end in disaster sooner or later)
Thanks for the input!
Indeed, using Alt for Mac for anything else than text is not so nice. However,
on Mac we could use Ctrl. To this end, we could introduce a secondaryMeta that
maps like this:
- Mac: Ctrl
- Win: Alt
- Linux: Alt
What do you think?
Would be ok but why do we need secondary meta?
