I was just complaining about something like this just the other day.

edit: hold on, they want me to have dedicated keyboard keys for copy and pasta? No. I am not accepting that as a solution.

no, there are dedicated keycodes for copy and paste, and you can bind them to whatever

[–] glitchdx@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I'd like them to be ctrl-c and ctrl-v

[–] brian@programming.dev 2 points 1 week ago

yeah, if you bind ctrl c and ctrl v to copy and paste keys, you can get the same behavior in terminals and other apps that have weird default bindings for ctrl c and v for historical reasons
