I'm trying to intercept a F1 key sequence, but I'm having problem with the XGrabKey(). I've followed everything in the Xlib manuals, checked the return mask.... All the variables seems to be OK, but I can't grab the key sequence I wanted. I'm pretty novice with X, so any help or pointer are greatly appreciated. Please send response to linh@sutro.sfsu.edu or apple.com!well!sr0!dang Thanks in advance Linh

I've followed everything in the Xlib manuals, In general, it is not a good idea to mix Xlib functions with X Toolkit functions, except inside for widgets. XGrabKey interferes with the X Toolkit input manager. Motif 1.1 and X11R4 include the function XtGrabKey that you should use instead. -- Ken Lee DEC Western Software Laboratory, Palo Alto, Calif.
