I'm trying to map the Xterm keys on an HP/Apollo 9000-400 to be usable
on a DEC vt220. I used 'xmodmap' with a keymap file containing the
following:
keysym KP_Multiply = KP_F1
keysym KP_Divide = KP_F2
keysym KP_Add = KP_F3
keysym KP_Subtract = KP_F4
keysym KP_Enter = KP_Subtract
keysym KP_Tab = KP_Enter
keysym BackSpace = Delete
this seemed to work just fine, until I created another HPterm or Xterm
and it still had the vt220 keymappings. Why do the vt220 keymaps remain?
How do I set the vt220 keymaps ONLY for one instance of Xterm?
Thanks, (in advance)

You told the server that the key that used to correspond to KP_Multiply was to correspond to KP_F1; naturally, when you press it, you get a KP_F1 event, regardless of which client is listening to the keystroke. > How do I set the vt220 keymaps ONLY for one instance of Xterm? I'm not sure. You can probably do something with the -name and -class options and the Translations resource, but I'll let someone better versed in toolkit magic handle that side of it. der Mouse old: mcgill-vision!mouse new: mouse@larry.mcrcim.mcgill.edu
