I just read elharo’s IDEA criticisms, and since keyboard shortcuts are his main one, I thought I’d share the set I’ve been using for years in IDEA.
Like him, when I started using it on the Mac, they drove me nuts. Since this was back when Eclipse sucked mightily on the Mac, I remapped them all.
You can download the file here. Place it in your ~/Library/Preferences/IntelliJIDEAxx/keymaps folder and restart IDEA.

It looks like they have a fix for this in v9. One of the key binding settings is OS X 10.5+. I just started using the editor coming from eclipse and was horrified by the default keyboard short cuts. I am still testing out this setting but it looks good so far as in command W actually closes the window.
Thanks for the post,
