Control key worked. The reason for the confusion is I am a Mac user and the cmd key is the super key on Linux. I'm even using an Apple keyboard :P

Thanks for clearing that up.

Off-topic - but doesn't that confuse you? I gave up on desktop linux - partly because I don't like Gnome 3 or Unity (Gnome 2 was good though) but also because my fingers are so used to Cmd-S, Cmd-T etc. I tried mapping Ctrl to the Cmd key but that breaks other stuff (like the Unity launcher).

Nope, I've been using multiple OSes since I was a wee boy.

I don't use either of those, I use XMonad. XMonad is about 33% of why I prefer Linux to OS X.

wee boy, multiple oses, etc. I use Emacs and vim concurrently as well (although Emacs is my primary editor for programming 97% of the time).

Train the mind, train the hands. Linux, OS X, Windows, and Emacs are practically part of my spinal cord.

The video gaming probably didn't hurt either.
