How can I disable Control-W in Windows XP?
- by Tim Visher
I'm an Emacs/Mac user trapped on Windows at work and I often type Control-W from muscle memory to delete a word and thus by mistake kill the entire window, including everything that I was working on. This a particularly egregious problem for Console2 as I run GNU Screen and am often doing many things at once.
Is there any way to completely disable Control-W or remap it to something that is far harder to type?
Thanks!
