I think you can do this with the xmodmap utility.  Also, there is a GUI
utility called xkeycaps

http://www.jwz.org/xkeycaps/

Which is useful too.

Only good for X, this won't be useful in a non-X environment.

Subject: [Newbie]Swapping Ctrl/CapsLock


Hi all,
I use RH Linux 7.1 on a Dell desktop system (which I'm extremely happy
with).  However, the darned ctrl key and CapsLock keys are in the wrong
place (as they are on all PC keyboards).  I frequently use other unix
boxes (notably Sun Sparc systems) that have ctrl correctly placed to the
left of the "a" key, and CapsLock on the bottom row, left side).

Can I re-configure the XFree86 system to think I press "ctrl" pc keyboard
when in fact I press the key labeled "CapsLock", and vice versa?

Thanks for the help.
George
