OPT was used in place of ALT on old Mac keyboards, that's way it used this
name in BeOS. But modern x86 Macs no longer use OPT, only ALT. So, OPT is
definitively wrong and misleading - at least until we don't have a working
Haiku for PPC Macs :)
WIN is better suited and everybody will understand it - including recent
Mac owners who have CMD and the clover on that key; slightly older Macs
have the Apple logo and the clover. See the picture of my 2006 MacBook
compared with the 2008 model: http://www.biffuz.it/misc/macbooks.jpg
