OK, here is the new patch for the current LyX 2.0 in svn trunk:
modifierKey-2.diff
Description: Binary data
The check box is added in Preferences > Editing > Keyboard/Mouse, but only if we're on MacOSX with Qt > 4.6.0. The default setting is to leave everything as it is now. When the check box is set, the Mac control key will act as LyX Ctrl and the Mac Command key will act as LyX Meta (which is the reverse of the current default mapping, and is preferred by emacs users). No matter what the setting is, the MacOSX-specific commands for "Quit", "Hide" and "Preferences" will be unchanged (i.e., they continue to use the Mac Command key). Thanks, Jens
