[X2Go-User] Mac OSX and keyboard

[Will Rouesnel]

This is also a problem for me in a mixed Ubuntu/Windows environment, so 
I don't think it's confined to just Mac OS X either. It's a huge 
problem since you basically can't use normal text editor commands. Any 
progress or discoveries about this issue would be most welcome!
