OK, I don’t care what it says, I found it in mine. I went to that options in layout and there are two settings to look at. “Caps lock behavior” and “Control Position”. “Control position” also has numerous options and one is “Caps Lock as Control, Control as Hyper” and the one just below it is “Caps lock as control” alone. And in “caps lock behavior” there is an option for “caps lock ALSO as control”. Actually both have some really cool options available besides these.
Did you ever find that? Ace’s was in a different location than mine. His was >Input devices->keyboard->Advanced tab->Configure Keyboard options. But they are there somewhere, just have to dig around.
I think we are asking the wrong search question. “Control position” are probably the correct keywords for these options. That is where mine was. Did you get Mint “Cinnamon”? This is why I suggested it, so that I can help find stuff for you on my end. But they may have moved it around and parked it elsewhere in newer versions? And other Desktops like Ace’s KDE does, will probably have them in a different place.
But those options like Ace and I have should be in there somewhere.
Now something I found with the menu since you like keyboard controls. If you hit the “win” key (Super) it will open and close your menu and it can be navigated with the arrow keys. Up, down, left, right as a selector instead of needing your mouse. Same if you do open it with the mouse on the menu button, the arrow keys will work as a selector once it is open.

Thanks for referring to under "Options" on the bottom of Layout where you find remap to ctrl option, however, you did not find the option to remap to ctrl+c, which is the issue, and retain that past sessions. That "really cool" (showing our age) option is what is missing.

Cannot find it myself, while eve he found it would not persist past sessions.

Yes, Mint 22.1, as said. “Control position” is not ctrl+c. Failing that, maybe remap F1 to ctrl+c, and F2 to ctrl+v. In Windows, I remapped F1 to ctrl+F, since Firefox etc. somehow thinks that people show not want to see the Find bar open for every tab - as if no one would be searching for the same thing on many pages (some browsers even delete your last search term when searching again, as well as not providing a separate search bar).

Thanks, and Windows offers the like, but that is not what I need.
