1 # How to configure key mapping with the VNC plugin.
3 Remmina has an hidden feature with which you can configure custom key mappings, this is useful if you need, for example, to map the local *Super* key to the remote macOS *Option* key *(leaving theexisting local *Alt* key to the remote macOS* Command *key map alone.)*
5 See #1716 for a long discussion about this.
7 Keys can be mapped according to a configurable map. There is a predefined map called "Map Meta Key" that seems to be exactly what we need for macOS.

25 Other maps, using the same syntax, can be created in the `remmina.keymap` file, located in the same directory as the remmina.pref file, usually `~/.config/remmina/remmina.keymap` Key symbol names can be found on the GDK file [gdk/gdkkeysyms.h](https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/raw/master/gdk/gdkkeysyms.h).
