Yes, in a few programs they don't work, whereas Ctrl-Z/X/C/V are pretty much universal now. But my bigger complaint is that in some situations I (used to) work with the right hand on the mouse and with the left hand on these control keys. This was a very quick and efficient way to do e.g. editing that doesn't require typing (like moving around blocks). That's what I miss. > so perhaps it is time to download the MS keyboard layout creator and see > about creating our own. That's what I've done to create a Dvorak International keyboard (similar to the US International, with the accented etc. characters). I haven't thought about changing the whole control key layout, though. I think it's possible with the layout creator -- if it works for you. I still haven't tried it (the program you sent me doesn't work with a Dvorak layout, it seems to require a QWERTY layout, so I need to add that to my setup first).
