The UC_ALT_KEY symbol certainly is. Anyhow, It _should_ be clear to Mac users that "^" == "control" key on a Mac keyboard, as that's how it is presented for keyboard shortcuts in all Mac menus. But if it's really irritating then we can also revert that to either "Ctrl" or "control". It's a quick change. I just got itched by the "Alt" hint actually, which is not printed on any Mac keyboard. > Tested-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <philmd@linaro.org> > Reviewed-by: Philippe Mathieu-Daudé <philmd@linaro.org> Thanks! > > else > > - [normalWindow setTitle:@"QEMU - (Press ctrl + alt + g to release Mouse)"]; > > + [normalWindow setTitle:@"QEMU - (Press " UC_CTRL_KEY " " UC_ALT_KEY " G to release Mouse)"]; > > } > > [self hideCursor]; > > CGAssociateMouseAndMouseCursorPosition(isAbsoluteEnabled); > > >

While mouse is grabbed, window title contains a hint for the user what keyboard keys to press to release the mouse. Make that hint text a bit more user friendly for a Mac user: - Replace "Ctrl" and "Alt" by appropriate symbols for those keyboard keys typically displayed for them on a Mac (encode those symbols by using UTF-8 characters). - Drop " + " in between the keys, as that's not common on macOS for documenting keyboard shortcuts. - Convert lower case "g" to upper case "G", as that's common on macOS. - Add one additional space at start and end of key stroke set, to visually separate the key strokes from the rest of the text.
