[comp.windows.x] _Remove on DS3100

Under X11R3, I was able to use the following in my .twmrc to iconify
windows on a DS3100. Under X11R4, this doesn't appear to work, and
e.g. in an xterm, the key gets passed through.

"_Remove"    =      : window : f.iconify

I determined the name '_Remove' using 'xev'.

You were linking against the Ultrix product Xlib library.  "_Remove" is a
non-standard keysym name, and is not present in the MIT Xlib by default.
If you want this keysym with the MIT R4 Xlib, you can create the file
/usr/lib/X11/XKeysymDB and put the following line in it:

_Remove: 1000FF00

[This functionality is documented in the document
"Xlib Changes From Release 3 to Release 4".]
