Hi,

	I need some background information on keyboard mapping and keysym.
I want to know if there is any rule for keyboard mapping and if there is,
is there any corelation between keyboard mapping on different machines( DEC,
SGI, SUN , HP) so that I can translate the keypress event from one server
to be understood by another server. Thanks in advance.
