What Linux do you use? In my Netscape, it's alt-x/c/v for cut/copy/paste,
in my Emacs I copy with alt-w, etc.
That said, I would still also prefer easily changeable keyboard mappings.
Hacking the paragraph editor isn't something I do every day. BTW, did
somebody else notice the US-Mac-specific key bindings in there?
