I RTFM once or twice, too. It seems like this sort of thing should be easier to grok. The only program I know of that plays with the keyboard that you are likely to see source to is the X server. The is also a utility program that sets the keyboard mode. I believe there are four, ascii, and three other event encodings. -- [rbj@uunet 1] stty sane unknown mode: sane Brought to you by Super Global Mega Corp .com
