On: Ask HN: Have you considered switching from OS X to...

[abrowne]

This bothered me too, so I

    1. Rebound control to the command key
    2. Changed the terminal shortcuts to control-c, etc. (from control-shift-).
    3. Set the terminal to use control-j instead of control-c for sigint:
       $ stty intr ^j

(I'm slowly transitioning from OS X to Linux.)
