Description stiffuser 2011-09-14 21:23:05 UTC
The copy and paste shortcuts in the Output window and the built-in Terminal are Ctrl-Shift-C and Ctrl-Shift-V, respectively. On OS X, the standard copy and paste shortcuts are Command-C and Command-V.

I understand that on Linux and Windows, the standard copy shortcut (Ctrl-C) conflicts with the default shell shortcut for the SIGINT interrupt, so the copy shortcut is changed to Ctrl-Shift-C. However, on OS X there is no reason to do this; the nonstandard copy shortcut is irritating because Command-C works everywhere else in the IDE.

Petr, can you please review a change of shortcuts in Output Window (requested above)?

Should not all Mac shortcuts use Command key?
Is this change applicable for 7.2, or should it wait for a later release?

Thank you.

Output Window in NetBeans 7.3 uses system-wide shortcuts.
Can you please try 7.3 beta or the latest development build and check if it is correct? Thank you.

Shortcuts work as expected.
