Micro: Use "Command" key on Mac instead of ctrl?

[ns-cweber]

Using a Mac at work has conditioned me to use the "command" key instead of ctrl, and it would make micro more ergonomic if it used this idiom as well.

Unfortunately this is not possible. Since micro is a terminal-based text editor, it receives events from the terminal. Terminals only send control key events, not command ones. This is because the terminal uses command events for its own keybindings, such as Cmd-Q which closes the terminal itself.

Ah, sorry to hear that, but thanks for the (prompt) explanation.

you can use apps like BetterTouchControl or others to send the keycodes you want

I don't remeber if i changed vim config but I can use cmd+c/cmd+v for copy/paste
btw cmd+v is working in micro (cmd+c isn't)
use iterm2
