I am using mate on an italian keyboard. While the menu tell me that I can do shift left wiht command + [ when I try nothing happens. I have to do alt + command + [ to get a shift left but this last keymap is supposed to do code formatting.
The only workaround is to re-assign the key binding¹ to something reachable.
Keys have been chosen to make sense on a US keymap and unfortunately does not work well on some European layouts, but for normal coding, many European layouts really suck (like requiring two modifier keys to type a backslash), so many European coders actually use the US keymap.
