I haven't contacted the QEMU mailing list. The get-key-map word appears to be an Apple added word, so other OS's will not use it. You don't like the fact the Control key is mapped as the Command key. QEMU currently does not send the Command key to the emulated system.
I suspect you're just not asking it properly.
There are other issues to deal with if the Command key were sent to the guest OS. If QEMU was placed in full screen mode, how would the user return to windowed mode? Command-F wouldn't work any more.
Nonsense.
Another issue is what word would we use to detect the Command key? The "key" word is what I use to detect the pushed key on the keyboard. Would this word be able to detect the Command key?
KEY will not do anything for the control key, either. You want EKEY (or some custom word, of course).
