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? gt Yes I fear I am living beyond my mental means--Nash
