CLiDE FTW!!1 Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Personally, I like to use CTRL over Apple's Command key, simply because I use my pinky to do any sort of variable commands, such as CTRL, shift, capslock, tab, etc., where as I have to dip down my middle finger just to use command. Which do you prefer? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawker Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 I prefer command simply because thats what I'm used to using now,i still use my pinky sometimes to do a command, but i usually just use my ring finger. I don't use the homerow {censored}, i just touch-type (I memorized the qwerty layout quite well) so i can use pretty much which ever finger i want to do a command. Its a pain in the ass for me to use Windows or linux now because I'm so used to using cmd instead of crtl, i can't tell you how many times i accidentally logged myself out by using the wrong key command xD! <_> -Prawker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apowerr Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Ctrl for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Nonny Moose Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Based on keyboard shortcuts, I'd say command because CMD-Q is a lot better than its Windows counterpart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FUKKU Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 I prefer command, it's better placed than ctrl for my clumsy fingers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ar3s Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 I have to use windows at work, and therefore use ctrl. Can't get used to command at home, so I remap the keys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f^sh Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 Both. Still need all those options for Quark. Because of this, you pretty much don't need to use a mouse, except for moving picture and text boxes around. Make manipulating the layout far faster. Some commands require Control(pinky)-Option(middle)-Apple(thumb)-Shift(ring)+other combination left to index or right hand fingers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's positioning of the button that also matters. Command is 2 keys over from Ctrl, just as C is 2 keys over from Z. I'm just saying that I prefer to use CTRL as to me it's easier to poke my pinky at Ctrl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karmatose Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 CTRL+C ... Terminal would be a {censored} without it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
U.C. Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 CTRL......tooo used to Windows, so I switch the keys using Keyboard Preferences. Plus CTRL is so much easier to press than CMD. I use the Pinky for CTRL/SHIFT/Caps Lock Etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
