Unexpected Matlab Shortcut keys
Have you ever wondered why Matlab for Linux has unexpected hot keys (for example, none of the cords control-c, control-x, control-v, or control-s have the same behavior as in Windows)? I couldn't figure out who would want those shortcuts to be different. Steven Lord provides the answer. They are set for Emacs hot keys. Changing them is easy if you know how. "There are preferences in the Keyboard & Indenting sections under both Command Window (for command window keybindings) and Editor/Debugger (for keybindings used in the editor) that you can toggle between Windows standard and Emacs standard." In my version (7.40), I found these options under File-Preferences-Keyboard.
