OK, I read man pages wrong.  The above did not work.  What I did:

        #loadkeys ./mykeys
        Loading ./mykeys
        unknown keysym 'alt'    ;; I tried 'meta' too
        ./mykeys:3: parse error
        syntax error in map file
        keybindings not changed
        #

Will someone please jump in with their size 10's and help out?  What is
the correct syntax ( this matched the example in man )?  Should I be
using a different command, or hand editing some file?
