Assignable Modifier Keys

Within OS X there are keys on the keyboard that change or modify the action of other keys. The Command key for example is used often with the P key as a shortcut to print.

If the position or the layout of these keys is not suitable then you can change them. If you are using a non standard Mac keyboard for example then you may need to change the modifier keys.
