The query tool ones may well be out of our hands as the
wxStyledTextControl handles most of the editting grunt work. The other
ones are on the TODO already :-)

and a quick-google after wxStyledTextControl delivers:

wxStyledTextCtrl - Key Mapping and Execution
	• CmdKeyAssign
	• CmdKeyClear
	• CmdKeyClearAll
	• CmdKeyExecute
---- SNIP ----
backgrounder:

The STC has a default mapping between certain keys and functions. This  
is simplified/summarized below, but also see the source files: contrib/ 
src/stc/Scintilla/src/KeyMap.cxx and contrib/src/stc/Scintilla/include/ 
Scintilla.iface.

The actual keystroke mappings occur in a platform-adaptation layer,  
e.g., see contrib/src/stc/ScintillaWx.cpp.

So, if i would have more time i would dig into this and create some  
better KeyMappings (either through definition in file, or through  
inline modification via CmdKeyAssign ...) for the Control for OSX, but  
i am currently swamped with work ...



but maybe another guy can have a look on it, or i will check it in a  
few weeks/month ....



best regards
