Ok here's an idea (see also the Keyboard and Console HOWTO):
go to a (local) linux console, and type
showkeys > keys.map
Then edit keys.map. For instance in my case, the first line is:
keymaps 0-2,4-6,8-9,12
This means you have columns denoting (see man keymaps)
0,1,2: none, shift, altgr
4,5,6: ctrl, ctrl+shift, ctrl+altgr
8: alt
9: alt+shift
12: alt+ctrl
And then layer:
keycode 59 = F1 F13 Console_13 F25 F37
alt keycode 59 = Console_1
control alt keycode 59 = Console_1
This means: shift+F1->F13, AltGr+F1->Console_13, Ctrl+F1->F25,
Shift+Ctrl+F1->F37. And then below some more explicit definitions.
Then further down:
string F1 = "\033[[A"
string F13 = "\033[25~"
Ha so now we now that Shift-F1 gives this. You can add to keys.map for
instance:
string F25 = "\033[39~"
if you then do
loadkeys keys.map
and press Ctrl+F1 in "cat -v" you'll see this [39~ appearing.
Now and only now you can ssh to somewhere else and see the same.
Then probably on the Linux Console you have TERM=linux. Now for a little
DOSEMU source, because you want to let DOSEMU know about your spanky new
keybindings:
src/base/keyboard/keyb_slang.c:
static Keymap_Scan_Type Linux_fkeys[] =
{
{"\033[[A", KEY_F1 }, /* F1 */
{"\033[[B", KEY_F2 }, /* F2 */
{"\033[[C", KEY_F3 }, /* F3 */
{"\033[[D", KEY_F4 }, /* F4 */
{"\033[[E", KEY_F5 }, /* F5 */
{"\033[39~", KEY_F1 | CTRL_MASK }, /* Ctrl+F1 */ <--- add this line
{"", 0}
};
and recompile.
I hope you get the idea. It's certainly possible. Now you say that "shift
behaves like control", I don't know what causes that, but you might be
able to figure it out from this information.
For instance, in keyb_slang.c I see defined:
{"\033[23~", KEY_F1 | SHIFT_MASK }, /* Shift F1 (F11 acts like
* Shift-F1) */
...
{"\033[25~", KEY_F3 | SHIFT_MASK }, /* Shift F3 */
But on my console, Shift-F1 gives \033[25~, so when I press Shift-F1
DOSEMU thinks I'm pressing Shift-F3!
