Not really because the key would still have to be grabbed to see whether its action should be triggered. I had a similar problem a while ago which I simply got around by remapping CapsLock to Mod3 and using that as my modkey. The following lines can do it: xmodmap -e "clear lock" xmodmap -e "add mod3 = Caps_Lock" -- GCS/IT/M d- s+:- a-- C++ UL+++ US UB++ P+++ L+++ E--- W+ N+ o-- K- w--- ?O M-- ?V PS++ PE- Y++ PGP+++ t+ 5 X+ R tv b+++ DI+++ D+++ G+ e h! r y+ Gregor Best
