Hey, if it works... % % "man dumpkeys" % "man showkey" The former was pointed out to me earlier, and I'm grateful for the pointer to the latter, though I had seen it but couldn't use it. I tried looking a bit for these sorts of things earlier and got something much like [zero] [3:19pm] ~> man -k key | grep code keybound (3ncurses) - return definition of keycode .. showkey (1) - examine the codes sent by the keyboard define_key (3ncurses) - define a keycode .. getkeycodes (8) - print kernel scancode-to-keycode mapping table keyok (3ncurses) - enable or disable a keycode .. setkeycodes (8) - load kernel scancode-to-keycode mapping table entries but trying something that looked promising yielded [zero] [3:19pm] ~> showkey Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console and so I didn't really bother to pursue it much more. After all, I'm not the one who's trying to bind shifted function keys. % % and even if you'll get xmodmap to do something for Well, that sort of assumes you're running under X, now, doesn't it? % pressing Extended-Meta-Alternate-Control-Shift - % forget all about it when using mutt (or whataever) % within a terminal over some connection. % % Sven [always using ASCII - because it *works*] It sure does!
