Hello,
First, I'd like to state that I am new to this list. If the answer to my
question/issue is in a FAQ somewhere, please direct me to it.
I have a PowerBook G4 laptop. I purchased the Apple Wireless Keyboard and
mouse to use with it. The keyboard's layout is very much like the everyday
keyboard layout I use in a VMS environment. I have been able to use the KB
in that environment but with a few problems. The xterm's VT100 emulation
does a very good job with the graphics but alternate numeric keypad does not
completely support the application keypad mode in a VMS environment. (I do
hope this ASCII art doesn't wrap for you.)

[CLR] [ = ] [ / ] [ * ] [PF1] [PF1] [PF3] [PF4] [$OP] [$OQ] [$OR] [$OS]
[ 7 ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ] [ + ] [ 7 ] [ 8 ] [ 9 ] [ - ] [$Ow] [$Ox] [$Oy] [$Om]
[ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ - ] [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ , ] [$Ot] [$Ou] [$Ov] [$Ol]
[ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [en ] [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] [en ] [$Oq] [$Or] [$Os] [ ]
[ t ] [ t ] [$OM]
[ 0 ] [ . ] [ er] [ 0 ] [ . ] [ er] [ $Op ] [$On] [ ]
where: $ == <ESC>
The X11/xterm maps the wireless into application keypad mode but only the
[0] through [9], [.], [+] and the [enter] keys want to map/provide the ap-
plication mode escape sequences.
Can anybody help me to make this mapping complete??? In fact, I don't care
if the [CLR], [=], [/], [*] and [+] always output the escape sequences. I
don't use the alternate keypad for numerical input anyway.
One other "quickie" but not all that import. After issuing an xhost to al-
low a client to display, is there a way to list all of the permitted hosts?
I went looking for a .xhosts file but didn't find one. Where is this info
stored?
Thanks in advance.
