With the help of a few people with various different systems we have
discovered that <Caps-Lock><Ctrl>c does the same as <Ctrl>c on every system
and application where it does anything sensible. Also we have found that
<Shift><Cntrl>c appears not to do anything expected! On most systems where
it does anything at all it seems to emulate <Alt-Gr>c

Is it possible to add key bindings for <Caps-Lock><Ctrl>[c|x|v] to make them
behave the same as <Ctrl>[c|x|v] which would make things work in the most
logical (expected) way?

regards,

Colin
