Standardized?
I use vim in cmnds/MS-WIN windows, vim in linux shells, gvim on windows
and even occasionally gvim on linux.
Will these standardized chords work all of those cases? I
tend to find them confusing...since I'm often unsure if of which
"chord" it is:
{ctl,shft,alt}-{ins,del,home,end,PgUp,PgDn}, and with the chording
keys, you can press more than one at the same time and they are different.
They also act differently if you are in a CMD window, vs a Win-app,
It can get worse if you add the 'Win and Menu' keys (my keyboard doesn't
even have a Menu key...*sigh*
I'm not saying they are bad -- just that when I switch platforms
I get confused -- especially since I often connect from one platform
through a window, remotely, to another platform.
All I need is an Apple-keyboard, and my mental processes will
be "set"....well, I suppose if I really want to challenge, I should be
able to switch from qwerty to dvorak (at least in the US), I guess in
France its qzerty?...

I don't.

I don't find those chording combinations you mention work
in a cmnd-Win nor over an 'ssh' connection, nor a linux-terminal-emulating
remote client (SecureCRT).
Maybe if I had a different setup -- and actually only used
linux and win desktops? Apple/MAC? Didn't use 'tty' windows? If you
use remote desktop clients like the Windows "Terminal-Services" remote?
There are other remote clients people like to share desktops...they all seem
to have different quirks & short cuts...(sigh)...
I know-- just don't use remote computers! :-) (that would make my
life 'difficult')....
