Butler Config File for Improved OS X Shortcut Keys
A bit late, but as a follow up to this post, my "butler" config file can be grabbed here. With this config, I can:
o Use my "windows/*nix" shortcut keys for firefox such as "cntr t" and "cntrl r" (new tab/reload)
o Use "cntrl c/v/z/y/x/a" for copy/paste/undo/redo/cut/select all
o Retain a "break" in terminal for "cntrl c"
o Use "shift cntrl c/v" in terminal for copy/paste (ala gnome-terminal)
Thinking about this from a different mindset, the following might work out well for me and require less remaps:
o Swap the cntrl/cmd key
o Use the butler to remap "cmd" to "cntrl" for a few specific items such as sending a "break" in a terminal
o Use my "windows/*nix" shortcut keys for firefox such as "cntr t" and "cntrl r" (new tab/reload)
o Use "cntrl c/v/z/y/x/a" for copy/paste/undo/redo/cut/select all
o Retain a "break" in terminal for "cntrl c"

sweet- thanks. i was trying to figure out how to import your config file, when i got lazy and double-clicked. the running butler app asked me if I wanted to import them. sweet- i don't recall seeing anything like that in windoze land.
