CONTRIBUTING.md: Remove the reference to "Cmd + C"
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
The "Cmd + C" keyboard shortcut is for copying text,
not quitting programs in the terminal.

The proper way to quit programs in the terminal
under macOS is "Ctrl + C", the same as Linux.

Referring to "Cmd + C" here was based on
a mistaken assumption that "Ctrl" on Windows or Linux
always gets translated to "Cmd" on macOS.

(In fact, some uses of "Ctrl" on Windows/Linux
are preserved as-is on macOS. It's a mixed bag.)

Deleting the reference to "Ctrl + C", to make the guidance clearer.
