Menu key shortcuts

Does anyone know if it is possible to assign keyboard shortcuts for menu keys without using the Command key on every shortcut? For example, I would like to program Cntrl-R as delete previous word, but I have to use the Command-Cntrl-R as it is now.

Clarification

Thanks for the reply, Martin, I can be more specific. I was thinking of two things. First, cursor movement. I am addicted to the old old wordstar cursor movement commands: ctrl-A is word left; ctrl-S is character left; ctrl-D is character right; and ctrl-F is word right. This sort of thing. And seco...
