The following lines appear in a file called ".Xmodmap" which resides in
my home directory. 115 is the left window key, 116 is the right window
key, 117 is the "right click" key:
keycode 115 = Kanji
keycode 116 = Henkan
keycode 117 = Muhenkan
keycode 22 = BackSpace
Then I have the following line in my .Xclients file. It should go into
a file which is read upon startup of your X session. This executes
xmodmap, and has it read the above keycodes, assigning them to usable
names:
xmodmap .Xmodmap
Now the names can be bound to any functions or events in your .fvwmrc.
I have my 2 window keys doing different things.
### Microsoft Keyboard special Keys and their Functions
Key Kanji A A PopupUtils Utilities
Key Henkan A A Prev [*] focus
Key Muhenkan A A PopupOps Window-Ops
Luck++;
Eric.
