Hi Antoine, I switched to the latest, given that you fixed the 'a' issue--thanks a lot!
Now, I still can't apply my desired xmodmap settings and I'm a bit confused as to the mechanism I should follow. Perhaps, you can clarify the next few points for me: 1. The latest version has xpra.org/trac/changeset/325 and winswitch.org/trac/changeset/4802. Does one or the other of these, negate the need for custom xmodmap files? 2. When do I need the ability to set custom xmodmap settings with the above? (If I don't ever run X, perhaps?) I see that you added the ability to use custom xmodmap files in winswitch.org/trac/changeset/4903. 3. Do the changesets in question 1 (and the custom settings in question 2) handle the "clear ... ; keycode ... ; add ..." sequence correctly (to clear the old logical modifiers, map keysyms, and then apply new logical modifiers)? I restarted WinSwitch with the X server running. Then, I restarted it after making the conf-file changes mentioned in global_settings.py. I see mentions of reading appropriate xmodmap settings in log files but I still don't have the Alt key work as Meta. Any thoughts as to what I'm doing wrong?
