Key binding on Mac OS should use other combination than the single option key (⌥)

[twwwt]

Expected Behavior

On Mac OS, the option key (⌥) is a key modifier (similar to the AltGr key on Windows) used to type additional characters. For instance, on German keyboard layouts ⌥ + e maps to the € (Euro) currency symbol. In general, entering ⌥ + e on the keyboard in any Eclipse text editor should type the character it is mapped to, according to the actual keyboard layout used.

Actual Behavior

Unfortunately, EasyShell's default keyboard binding on Mac OS generally starts with ⌥ + e, which makes it impossible to use ⌥ + e to type the character that the keyboard layout maps it to (since it is captured by EasyShell's key binding).

Please, change EasyShell's default keyboard shortcuts for Mac OS to not use the single option key ⌥ nor the ⌥ + ⇧ Shift combination. As a proposal, it could be changed like I did on my local Eclipse installation (^ is the CTRL key):

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

Obvious from the explanation above.

• Plugin version: 2.2.1
• Eclipse Version: 2021-12 (4.22)

I've no Mac OS and cannot test, so test build can be provided bofore cretaing new tag (release).
