One can approach this on different levels: 1) systems-wise via xmodmap (if you are on linux) 2) lyx-wise via keyboard maps in prefs (no guarantee how much maps still work) 2) lyx-wise via keybinding esc to "unicode-insert 005c" It might be better idea to bind to different key than getting rid of escape though :) Pavel -- lyx-users mailing list lyx-users@lists.lyx.org http://lists.lyx.org/mailman/listinfo/lyx-users
