My brother does not.

Clarifying the problem always helps .  I want Ctrl-X to mean "execute a
macro to be named later", not "cut to the Windows
clipboard."  C mode gets
in the way by tabbing the closing brace left on CR, leaving the cursor
unindented.

I am editing a source file (perl) but not getting quite what I want.  I ran
sc32.exe -b ui\tse.ui, and the MSWin keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl-c, Ctrl-X,
Ctrl-v) persist.  C mode appears to have been turned off.  Now I just need
to kill the MSWin-like ctrl keys and restore C mode, and I should be
content.
