Mapping Keyboard Shortcuts in Cinnamon

Using gconf-editor, follow instructions at http://www.maphew.com/Linux/Use_WinKey_in_Ubuntu.html.

The example is to map Super+E (or Windows+E) to start nautilus, like Windows opens Windows Explorer. The important steps (in gconf-editor) are:
  1. Go to /Apps/metacity/global_keybidings
  2. Set run_command_1 to <Super>E
  3. Go to /Apps/metacity/keybinding_commands
  4. Set command_1 to /usr/bin/nautilus
