more options for C-x and C-c behavior

[jasonperry]

Thanks very much for boon, after much research it's the modal package that best fits my needs, especially with the C-x and C-c bindings.

My feature request is to provide more options for how the C-x and C-c maps work. Specifically:

• Have a setting or alternate functions that provide the opposite behavior for whether Ctrl is held for subsequent keys. This is more important for c-god, but if it could be implemented for boon-x-map as well, it would mean fewer custom keybinds would need to be made.
• Optionally, have a key to toggle whether Ctrl is held for subsequent keys, like Space does in god-mode.

agree ...Boon is from my perspective very underrated. It strikes the right balance between keeping Emacs keybindings and having some nice modal functions

So, to clarify, you'd like c a to do C-c a and not C-c C-a, for instance?/

Yes, that's right, as an option. I know there are lots of existing bindings for both cases, so maybe there should be two separate functions.

After some more time with boon, I'm concluding that you made the right default choice in not having the C-x map hold Ctrl for subsequent keys, and the C-c map have it. I just needed a few additional keybindings to cover all my remaining use cases. Feel free to close.
