Hi


I tried to set my windows key as the prefix key according to the instructions 
in the faq, but it didn't work, so I decided instead to use the grave key. 
(Backward apostrophe, to the left of 1). This worked, but in order to be able 
to continue to type the grave character if I needed to, which is rare, I 
programmed the windows key to type it. This works in xterm if I type 
shift-windows. If I type windows without shift, you would perhaps expect it to 
act as the prefix key, but it does nothing.

In addition, I programmed F9 to send the grave character, but this, as 
expected, has made F9 act the same as grave, i.e. as the prefix key.

Here is what I put in .xsession:

xmodmap -e "keycode 133 = grave"
xmodmap -e "keycode 75 = grave"

133 is the key code for the windows key on my keyboards. 75 is F9.

Here is what I put in .stumpwmrc

(set-prefix-key (stumpwm:kbd "`"))

It's ok as it is, but I am curious to know why the windows key is being 
intercepted, but not acting as you would expect, i.e. as the prefix key.
