Describe the problem

The keyboard shortcuts on my Mac use the meta key instead of the Mac control keys. I cannot get any of them to work.

To reproduce

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Select Arduino IDE > Advanced > Keyboard Shortcuts from the Arduino IDE menus.
    The "Keyboards Shortcuts" view will open.
  2. Look at the display and see that the mappings do not make sense for a Mac.

Expected behavior

The mappings should use the Mac control keys instead of the meta key.

Operating system

MacOS

Operating system version

12.0.1

Additional context

On VSCode, the shortcuts use Mac keys.
