11/20 Is there an easy way to map the left "alt" key to "meta" key in
Mac OS X Tiger, X11 (in full-screen mode).
\_ Try: defaults write com.apple.x11 swap_alt_meta -bool true
\_ Sweet . That did it! Here's another question:
Is there a similarily elegant way to have Command N
launch a new rxvt window instead of an xterm?
\_ 1. X11.app: Applications Menu->Customize Menu
2. Change xterm to /usr/local/bin/rxvt (or whatever).
\_ Thanks again! Is there a similar way to make the
delete key do "backspace" in X11?
\_ Unless I'm doing something wrong, that command doesn't do
the trick. Any way to debug that?
How to get Command N to launch a new rxvt instead of xterm?
\_ Thanks again! How about this: is there a way
to set the "z" key (or some othe easily reachable
left-hand key) to be a "back" function in either
Safari or Firefox?
\_ Or better yet, could you just do it all for me?
\_ I put in my time searching the web and trying
all sorts of different things. Then asking the
friendly folks on motd, the best solutions are
offered in a few minutes. -op
\_ Try: stty erase '^H' OR stty erase '^?'
If this is an emacs question, put this in your
.emacs:
(keyboard-translate ?\C-h ?\C-?)
\_ Thanks again. I appreciate your assistance! -op
