My Original question was:
Hi,
Could anyone advise me on whether Function keys above F12 can be defined
on a DEC PCXAL keyboard, by using F1-F12 together with shift/ctrl/alt keys
by
using xmodmap, dxkeycaps or some other method?
Summary:
Two methods:
1/ Use command in .cshrc file like
xmodmap .xmodmaprc
where .xmodmaprc file in login directory contains lines:
keycode 9 = F1 F14
keycode 15 = F2 F18
keycode 23 = F3 F19
keycode 31 = F4 F20
keycode 39 = F5 F21
keycode 47 = F6 F22
keycode 55 = F7 F23
keycode 63 = F8 F24
keycode 71 = F9 F25
keycode 79 = F10 F26
keycode 86 = F11 F27
keycode 94 = F12 F28
2/ edit the /var/X11/xdm/keymap_default file to contain the above entries.
It seems that F13, F14, F17 may perform special functions (so I avoided
these)?
