Hi Bill,

Most of the modifications that the patch do are to some gconf keys  
which you can modify with gconf-editor. Only a few key bindings that  
can not by done by modifying gconf key are implemented in the  
individual application by writing c code which means you have to  
compile it yourself.

I am wondering if you can use xmodmap to map keys like copy to ctrl-c  
to fix your problem.

Regards,

Jedy
