This is possible in the Mac and Linux versions as well, but note that when embedding keyboard mappings in the layout file, the mappings need to be tagged in order to be recognized:

Quote:You can also define PC keyboard mappings in the *.layout file. The syntax is identical to that of the keymap file, preceded by a tag that indicates the target platform: WinKey for Windows, MacKey for Mac, and GtkKey for Linux and other Unix-like environments. It is necessary to specify which platform each key mapping is for, since the key codes are platform-dependent.
If a layout file defines a mapping for a key that is also mapped in the keymap
file, the skin-specific mapping takes precedence.

For example, the layout of the 42ck skin uses this.
