- I have figured out many of the keyboard key mappings for xterm, but there
- are a few that baffle me. These are the 'diamond' keys, alt graph and
- delete. I assume the 'diamond' keys and alt graph key are key modifiers
- much like shift and control. How do I make use of these keys as modifiers,
- and how do I distinguish between the two delete keys? Also, how do I switch
- modes such that my numeric keypad will emit numbers or control sequences
- depending on the mode? A specific answer would be fine, but a complete
- description for every key would be even better.
-
- Following is a portion of my keymappings from my .Xdefaults file:
-
- xterm*VT100*Translations: #override\
- Shift <KeyPress> Up: scroll-back(1,page) \n\
- Shift <KeyPress> Down: scroll-forw(1,page) \n\
- Shift <KeyPress> Left: scroll-back(50,page) \n\
- Shift <KeyPress> Right: scroll-forw(50,page) \n\
- Alt <KeyPress> R7: scroll-back(1,line) \n\
- Alt <KeyPress> R13: scroll-forw(1,line) \n\
- Alt <KeyPress> R8: scroll-back(1,page) \n\
- Alt <KeyPress> R14: scroll-forw(1,page) \n\
- Alt <KeyPress> R9: scroll-back(50,page) \n\
- Alt <KeyPress> R15: scroll-forw(50,page) \n
-
- For the above mappings that use Alt, I would like to use the 'Alt Graph'
- key instead.
-
- Many thanks in advance.
