Re: A standard for global/desktop environment shortcuts to prevent conflicts with Linux apps

Thanks for replying.

It's not never used, but it is rarely used. Digikam uses Meta + Left

probably a few other apps that use Meta. Thankfully Emacs is not one
of them since it uses Alt for M-* shortcuts instead of actually using
Meta.
