In i3wm, I’m currently binding my left ‘win’ key to ‘ctrl’ via xmodmap with the following:
remove mod4 = Super_L
add control = Super_L
This works everywhere except in Emacs, which instead interprets pressing the left ‘win’ key as pressing ‘win’ and ‘ctrl’ at the same time.
An Emacs maintainer said my xmodmap is a misconfiguration and that I need to find another way to do the rebinding. I’ve looked into setxkbmap, but I couldn’t figure out how to do this particular reassignment. Does anyone know how to do it?
Alternatively, if there's a workaround in Emacs I could use that would achieve the same effect, that would help too!
