Swaps Command and Control keys. It is usesful when you have to move back and forth between MacOS and Linux
Atom Command/Ctrl swapper
Remaps Command key to Control and vice versa.
Why
I have to move back and forth between Linxu and MacOS. It's almost impossible to have the perfect key binding on MacOS. Yet, I like to make MacOS to behave like Linux rather than the opposite. So there two solutions:
Swap Command and Ctrl at OS Level
It's easily possible
in MacOS to swap Command and Ctrl but I can't select
default XWin keybinding for my IntelliJ and the MacOS one is so different.
Key defaults and define shortcuts
It's possible to define shortcuts for general operations like Copy/Paste/... on Mac and map them to Ctrl-C, Ctrl-V, ...
Then I can use Default XWin keybinding on IntelliJ but then
Atom is not happy! Atom has different default key bindings base
on the operating system which is running on. It doesn't make sense
to define all Atom shortcuts and replace Command with Ctrl.
So I created this package!
How to use
Install the package
apm install atom-swap-command-ctrl
Toggle the package by either:
Cmd-Shift-Pand thenAtom Swap Command Control: Toggle- Navigate to menu choose
Packages -> Swap Command/Ctrl -> Toggle
Toggle again to go back to normal mode (turns of the swapper).
