Change keyboard shortcut for terminate code while running in Mac OS Matlab 2020

Hi, I am trying to change the shortcut for terminating code while running in Mac OS Matlab 2020

I look under Preferences -> MATLAB keyboard shortcut preferences but couldn't find the option to change it.

Currently I can do it using command+. or control+c, but I want to change it to command+c

Thanks,

The shortcut for stopping the execution is controlled by the operating system. You cannot modify it from inside an application.

You can find software to modify the keyboard layout, but this influences all applications on your machine.

In theory if you were starting from Terminal then you could use stty to modify which character generates SIGINT. It can be done for systems that support termios (I do not recall if it can be done for the older termio).

However, historically termios only supported narrow characters (0 to 255)... and the Command key is an additional key iirc, not a key modifier. But I would want to dig into the technical documents as it has been a very long time since I read about it.
