I put the following in .xmodmaprc and "xmodmap ~/.xmodmaprc" in my
.xinitrc:
clear Shift
clear Lock
clear Control
clear Mod1
clear Mod2
clear Mod3
clear Mod4
clear Mod5
keysym Alt_L = Meta_L Alt_L
add Shift = Shift_L Shift_R
add Control = Control_L
add Mod1 = Alt_L
add Mod2 = Mode_switch
Works with XEmacs and Emacs!
Ciao,
Eric
