For that, you have the ~/.emacs file. Make "Ctrl-X S" do what you
would have "Ctrl-X Ctrl-S" do. Emacs is just welfare for hand
surgeons and physical therapists anyway; you wouldn't have this
problem if you were using joe.
Alt-Ctrl-Del or Ctrl-Alt-Del is already handled, since you don't
let go of any key until the first two are pressed.
Generate the synthetic key-up event for a mouse button click too.
