While editing in an input field, I'm so used to going for Ctrl+W instead of Ctrl+Backspace because it's more ergonomic. But almost all modern browsers use Ctrl + W to close tabs. Since when was this a convention? I'd love to go back in time and git revert this change. Incredibly frustrating.

TL;DR: old man yelling at clouds.

I'm using AutoKey scripts like that in some games to automate weird key combinations and it has a very good response time. If it's responsive enough for a game it will probably work for text editing.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
