I ran into a problem while trying to define Function keys in .twmrc. This relates to the ANSI Sun type 4 keyboars. This is the keyboard Sun has been shipping with their newer Sun 3 and Sun 4 stations. (Flip the keyboard to know What I mean). Anyways, I cannot define F11 and F12 keys for twm window manager. "F11 = : all: f.exec "xrefresh" does not work. Replacing it with F10 or any other key (F9-F1) is no problem. (Doesnot work for F12 also). Has anybody else run into this problem. If you have any suggestion please e-mail or post it on the Net.

So make sure you haven't also defined keys L1 and L2 after you defined F11 and F12. Since they are the same code, the latter will override the former. +*************************************************************************+ * Dana Chee (201) 829-4488 * * Bellcore * * Room 2Q-250 * * 445 South Street ARPA: dana@bellcore.com * * Morristown, NJ 07960-1910 UUCP: {gateways}!bellcore!dana * +*************************************************************************+
