I need a new brain.  That should really, *really* be:

cat > .xmodmop <<HERE
keycode 115 = F31
HERE

Sheesh.

| I meant
|
| cat > >.xmodmop <<HERE
| keycode 115 = F31
| HERE
|
| Where <<STRING
| means
|

|

|
| Really, I'd advise invoking your favorite text editor on .xmodmap and

|
| Also, the -e way of invoking xmodmap (which I didn't know about) is

|
| | Never seen this and maybe you could breifly describe what it does.....not
| | a big deal as long as it works, but I'm always wanting to know "why" it
| | worked....
| |
| | Thanks again,
