On Linux, Control-C and Control-V don't work for copying and pasting in terminals. The Control modifier is used for its original purpose of inserting control codes. Instead, terminal apps require an extra Shift modifier, like Control+Shift+C. But what if there were hidden shortcut combos for copy and paste

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

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