Great resource! Thank you!
Just a note if anyone's faced the same issue. For the following to work I had to disable or change the Mission Control shortcuts for moving spaces left and right.
/* Windows defaults are more convenient */
"^\Uf702" = "moveWordBackward:"; /* C-left Move word left */
"^$\Uf702" = "moveWordBackwardAndModifySelection:"; /* C-S-left Select word left */
"^\Uf703" = "moveWordForward:"; /* C-right Move word right */
"^$\Uf703" = "moveWordForwardAndModifySelection:"; /* C-S-right Select word right */
Thank you for this, truly helpful. Question, is there a shortcut string that would specifically point to the right option key? Can left and right be differentiated in the key bindings?
