A start would be to try "xev". This will show you the keycodes and other things generated by keypresses on your system. If you want to customize the responses, you will need at least a customized .Xmodmap file in your ~/ for use under X. Text mode command line keyboard control is different and more obscure. "man loadkeys" for that. HTH Carl Brown
