Hi!
I have recently switched from Linux to Mac. And I have found that there are some really onying differences in different libraries between these two OS. The most recent I found is in Qt and is the mapping of Qt::Key_Control. On Linux this key is mapped to the Ctrl key, it seems to be quite intuitiv. But om MacOSX it is mapped to the command key. That is the key that is Alt on a PC keyboard... why is it not mapped to the Ctrl key?
Is there a way to use Ctrl key on both Mac and Linux? This can't be done by using Qt::Key_Control since this means Ctrl on Linux and Command key on Mac.
thanks
