I realize it's probably too late. But the repeated problems with /usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB made me think of it. It would be pretty trivial to export an interface in Xlib that would allow a program to query to see what keysyms are defined, and add more if they aren't already there. This would provide Motif (and other apps) with a keysym fallback mechanism similar to fallback resources. I think this would be pretty valuable. In fact, if it would be accepted as an enhancement I'd even be happy to write the code. -- Alfalfa Software, Inc. | Poste: The EMail for Unix nazgul@alfalfa.com | Send Anything...
