|I use the Dvorak keyboard arrangement. I'd be grateful for the executable
|and/or source for any programs that remap a SPARC station keyboard to the
|dvorak arrangement. Ideally, I'd like to be able to use dvorak with
|SunView, OpenWindow and motif, but I'd be happy with any one of the above.

Xmodmap should work with OW and Motif (both being X thingies), but I don't
know about SunView.  To do QWERTY on a Sun Type 4 keyboard, say "xmodmap
~/.xmodmap.qwerty".  To do Dvorak, say "xmodmap "/.xmodmap.dvorak".  The
modmaps, and a convenient reminder background bitmap, will follow.
(Thanks to Karl Fox for working these out.)

QWERTY xmodmap:

keycode 61 = Q
keycode 62 = W
keycode 63 = E
keycode 64 = R
keycode 65 = T
keycode 66 = Y
keycode 67 = U
keycode 68 = I
keycode 69 = O
keycode 70 = P

keycode 84 = A
keycode 85 = S
keycode 86 = D
keycode 87 = F
keycode 88 = G
keycode 89 = H
keycode 90 = J
keycode 91 = K
keycode 92 = L
keycode 93 = semicolon colon

keycode 107 = Z
keycode 108 = X
keycode 109 = C
keycode 110 = V
keycode 111 = B
keycode 112 = N
keycode 113 = M
keycode 114 = comma less
keycode 115 = period greater
keycode 116 = slash question

Dvorak xmodmap:

keycode 61 = slash question
keycode 62 = comma less
keycode 63 = period greater
