I use a programmable keyboard (Ergodox) and have a Symbols layer. So I can tell it to switch to the Symbols layer, then press Ctrl and the [ key. My operating system is set up as US Qwerty, but my Ergodox does all the keyboard layout translations for me to my actual layout BEAKL-15. Here is my keyboard layout: https://configure.ergodox-ez.com/ergodox-ez/layouts/q96az/latest/0 I'm assuming my keyboard sends the keycode directly to the operating system. This is what xev (linux/freebsd utility) shows when I press the [ key on my Symbols layer. =========================== KeyPress event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x1200001, root 0x1d7, subw 0x0, time 474847122, (-125,121), root:(749,250), state 0x0, keycode 34 (keysym 0x5b, bracketleft), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (5b) "[" XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (5b) "[" XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 36, synthetic NO, window 0x1200001, root 0x1d7, subw 0x0, time 474847250, (-125,121), root:(749,250), state 0x0, keycode 34 (keysym 0x5b, bracketleft), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (5b) "[" XFilterEvent returns: False =========================== So it seems Shift is not sent to the OS at all. But that would be expected because the [ and ] symbols are un-shifted keys on a standard US Qwerty keyboard. > Other totally other thing: > http://geldenhuys.co.uk/webnews/ in not accessible for days (and week). Yeah, I recently switched internet providers and received a new router. It is playing havoc with my website. Still trying to figure out what is going on. I believe direct access to the NNTP news server (with a NNTP Client) works.
