Comment (by bipolar):

Replying to [comment:5 pulkomandy]:

It works just the same in Linux for example in the Terminal. But not in

all applications, since they use control for keyboard shortcuts usually. I
think it's how this works in DOS too?

I should have expressed myself better: I guess I only ever expected those
to work on a console shell, and was really not expecting them outside one
(and don't recall encountering them, even Linux GUI environments, what was
I failed to express).

DOS has, at the very least, ^Z as "EOF" marker for things like "copy con",
for sure.

If we removed them from the keymap we would have to special-case them in

Terminal so that it continues to work there.

That sounds like a good compromise solution, more close to where they are
more likely to be needed/used/expected.

I any case... happy to have found a workaround in the meantime! Thanks
again!
