Sorry, the man page for xmodmap explains it this way: The KEYSYMNAME on the left hand side is translated into matching keycodes used to perform the corre sponding set of keycode expressions. The list of keysym names may be found in the header file <X11/keysymdef.h> (without the XK_ prefix) or the keysym database /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB. Note that if the same keysym is bound to multiple keys, the expression is executed for each matching keycode. They still refer to an XK_ prefix, but it looks like having 2 files to refer to is intentional. I'll update the man page. -- Dan Espen E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Visit the official FVWM web page at <URL:http://www.fvwm.org/>.
