On that note -- how hard would it be to remap ctrl to the Apple command key,
and "enter" to be an alternate option key? The MBP keyboard is complete crap
for Emacs, which would be my primary supercollider interface (actually it
already is in OSX by way of Aquamacs). Without this remapping, the
ergonomics would be disastrous.
on puredyne you can use xmodmap.

I'm a little confused how to do this. I've read the man page but it seems to be missing some basic information, like the keysym names for modifiers commonly found on modern keyboards. Control and Lock are clear enough. What about Alt or Command (in Apple speak -- the Windows start key elsewhere).

I'd kind of like to use this on my netbook, where the bottom row looks like this:

Ctrl    Fn    (Win start)    Alt <spc>    Alt    (context menu key)    Ctrl

And I'd like to make it look like this:

(Win start)    Fn    Alt    Ctrl <spc>    Ctrl    Alt    (context menu)

Could anyone give some hints? I'm extremely busy with a composition project and don't have a spare hour or two to futz around with it.

Thanks!
James
