48 /* X bogusly doesn't define the interpretations of any bits besides
49 ModControl, ModShift, and ModLock; so the Interclient Communication
50 Conventions Manual says that we have to bend over backwards to figure
51 out what the other modifier bits mean. According to ICCCM:
53 - Any keycode which is assigned ModControl is a "control" key.
55 - Any modifier bit which is assigned to a keycode which generates Meta_L
56 or Meta_R is the modifier bit meaning "meta". Likewise for Super, Hyper,
59 - Any keypress event which contains ModControl in its state should be
60 interpreted as a "control" character.
62 - Any keypress event which contains a modifier bit in its state which is
63 generated by a keycode whose corresponding keysym is Meta_L or Meta_R
64 should be interpreted as a "meta" character. Likewise for Super, Hyper,
67 - It is illegal for a keysym to be associated with more than one modifier
70 This means that the only thing that emacs can reasonably interpret as a
71 "meta" key is a key whose keysym is Meta_L or Meta_R, and which generates
72 one of the modifier bits Mod1-Mod5.
74 Unfortunately, many keyboards don't have Meta keys in their default
75 configuration. So, if there are no Meta keys, but there are "Alt" keys,
76 emacs will interpret Alt as Meta. If there are both Meta and Alt keys,
77 then the Meta keys mean "Meta", and the Alt keys mean "Alt" (it used to
78 mean "Symbol," but that just confused the hell out of way too many people).
80 This works with the default configurations of the 19 keyboard-types I've
83 Emacs detects keyboard configurations which violate the above rules, and
84 prints an error message on the standard-error-output. (Perhaps it should
85 use a pop-up-window instead.)
