Hello, great app, I really enjoy it!
One question: Is there a way to modify some keys that are visualized, especially for Windows users, or example, visualize Alt and Ctrl instead of Command and Option?
Thank you!

Being able to consider ⌥ option as a command key would be very useful! For example, the default shortcut in many text editors to move a line up or down is ⌥ option+ or ⌥ option+. At present it looks like only ⌃ control and ⌘ command are considered "command" keys, but not ⌥ option?
