Because Windows got it wrong... I don't know if commnd-key
equivalents were present in early ST UIs, but I know that c/v/x for
copy/paste/cut were present in the Mac UI using the Option Key,
predating Windows by quite a bit. Since Control-Key combinations are
needed to type control sequences, this makes sense. Why Gates
messed up on this I haven't a clue.
