- howdy from the wild west folks,
-
- i use MS Word (5.0a) a lot. additionally, i use the weird characters you
- can get with certain fonts (ie, new cent schlbck) if you hold down the
- option key and type a character.
-
- for instance, on a mac i can type Opt-J. this results in a triangle or
- delta symbol being printed instead of a j. this is useful for me when i
- write about certain deletions i have constructed in the lab. now, i know
- that with executor that l-alt is supposed to be the apple or command key
- and that r-alt is supposed to be the opt key.
-
- this is not working for me. is it working for anyone else? on my
- system, both alt keys are equivalent to the apple-command key.
-
- i guess i'll give it a shot with executor-svga 1.99p.
-
- ok, this is like a work in progress!
-
- i just gave MS Word a shot under executor-svga and all the keys are
- mapped correctly. unfortunately, the quality of the screen sucks
- (svgalib problem not executor), the caps lock and num lock keys don't
- work and the number of font sizes available is ridiculously limited.
-
- so, the problem must be with X. anyone know why these key mappings
- aren't working.
-
- stay tuned, more news later...
