Can't trigger copy or paste via keyboard with any combination of ctrl + alt + windows key.

From the code it looks like windows key is the correct combination.

When I add printf("key - %d\n", r); @

plan9port/src/cmd/acme/text.c

Line 669 in 3f1c876

I get
key - 99 // When pressing c
key - 3 // When pressing Ctrl + c
key - 99 // When pressing Windows key + c
key - 99 // When pressing alt + c (the keypress is sometimes ignored)

keyboard.h suggests it is mac-only.
Perhaps this patch will be useful to you. Instead of Kcmd, this uses control sequences.

How unfortunate that someone would accept mac only patches. Thanks mehlon.

We can't map Control to Kcmd because Kcmd+c (copy) and Ctrl+c (stop process) are very different operations. And Alt was taken too, for compose sequences.

Now that just about everything has a Windows key too, if someone wants to map the Windows key to Kcmd, that would be fine. I don't know how though.
