It really helped, but not with this particular matter. thanks Eduardo Lopes

There is no easy way. If you are intrested in unmapped keys you could use
the following script to map all unmapped characters.
#!/bin/ksh
jot 255 1 |
while read i; do
str=`wsconsctl keyboard.map | grep ^keycode ${i} = `
if [ $str = ]; then
j=`printf %03d $i`
d0=${j%[0-9][0-9]}
k=${j#[0-9]}
d1=${k%[0-9]}
d2=${j#[0-9][0-9]}
`wsconsctl keyboard.map+=keycode $j = $d0 $d1 $d2 at`
echo $s
fi
done
If you test a previously unmapped key unshifted shifted and alt gr
you should get tree digits which would be the decimal keycode of that
key.
if you dump keyboard.map after the script has been executed you should
find lines like
keycode 96 = 0 9 6 at
-moj
thanks
