More modmap settings
More .modmap files: Alt+Cmd for accents, Swap control and command ... please unset key equivalents under X11 in the Preferences in AppleX11Beta3.
Using the pico editor in Terminal.app from /Applications -> Utilities, save the script .xmodmap to your home folder, remove file to revert to default. Quit X11 and restart, start OpenOffice.org103. A. Alt to access Menus, AppleCmd for accented letters etc.: ! Alt --> acess Menus with underscore ! AppleCMD --> type accented letters etc (was Alt) clear Mod1 clear Mod2 keycode 63 = Mode_switch keycode 66 = Alt_L keycode 69 = Alt_R add Mod1 = Alt_L add Mod1 = Alt_R add Mod2 = Mode_switchB. Alt key for menus, Control type accents, AppleCmd is Modifier for shortcuts: ! -Modifier- function ! Alt --> access Menus with underscore ! AppleCmd --> for shortcuts (was control) ! Control --> type accents (was alt) clear control clear Mod1 clear Mod2 keycode 63 = Control_L keycode 66 = Alt_L keycode 67 = Mode_switch keycode 69 = Alt_R keycode 70 = Mode_switch add control = Mode_switch add Mod1 = Alt_L add Mod1 = Alt_R add Mod2 = Control_LThere is one drawback with swaping Control with AppleCmd. The following keys still work in OOo and X11B3: AppleCmd + H Hide Applicaton AppleCmd + Alt + H hide others AppleCmd + Shift + 3 Screenshot AppleCmd + Shift + 4 Scrennshot window etc. AppleCmd + Alt + D show/hide Dock AppleCmd + Shift + Q Logout AppleCmd + Alt + F12 SleepKeep this in mind if you customize the keys in OpenOffice.org103. In OOo, the AppleCmd is called Mode_switch. Don't wonder, it's the correct key. Warning: Use this .xmodmap to patch the keys only if OpenOffice is your only application in AppleX11Beta3!! The last version can cause strong behaviour in X11, because the control is the main modifier like AppleCMD in MacOS. I recommand to use the Version A. I test it with X11Beta3. Maybe someone can test it with OrborOSX or XDarwin. Hulot |
