I moved to Mac OS and I'm facing the control vs command key problem.
I already changed the settings for my external keyboard, so that my control key is mapped to command key and viceversa. This fixes my habits of ctrl-x,c,v,z and ctrl-t,ctrl-w for the browser and most applications.
However, when I work with Terminal and zsh, now ctrl-w, ctrl-u, ctrl-a etc… does not do what I expect, because I'm of course sending command-w etc.
How do I fix this once and for all so that I don't need to change my habits?

Then, instead of using
^W
,^U
,^A
, etc., you can just use the modifier keys (⌘/⌥/⌃) plus the arrow/delete keys (↑/↓/←/→/⌫/⌦), just as you do in the rest of macOS.Don't like those exact mappings? Just
