            Bug ID: 452413
           Summary: Terminal pane: control codes use command key
           Product: kate
           Version: 21.12.2
          Platform: macOS (DMG)
                OS: macOS
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: application
          Assignee: kwrite-bugs-null at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
When I use Kate's terminal and tried to use some control codes (e.g. ^C, ^D), I
noticed they didn't work. It turns out, to send control codes, I need to use
the command key (⌘) instead (e.g. ⌘C, ⌘D). This is rather unintuitive, because
on macOS, I'm used to pressing the actual control key to send control codes.

Furthermore, this means that I can't copy using the familiar shortcut ⌘C, I
need to right click and click the copy button.

I suggest reverting this and sending control/command normally, without
translation.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Kate on macOS
2. Try to send SIGTERM by pressing CTRL+C

OBSERVED RESULT
Nothing happens

EXPECTED RESULT
^C is sent to the terminal

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
macOS: 11.6
