Applications are pretty free to use control and alt keys to their heart&amp;#x27;s desire (they&amp;#x27;re free to use the window key too, but if the DE&amp;#x2F;WM captures a particular hot key, it won&amp;#x27;t work... it&amp;#x27;s not often that applications try to actually use it).</text></comment>
