Le vendredi, 10 jan 2003, ` 17:44 Europe/Paris, Steve Giraud a icrit :

hello,

i am wondering where i can specify my keyboard type.
You have to start X11 from the terminal with:
/Applications/X11.app/Contents/MacOS/X11 --xquartz-be-xinit -keymap /System/Library/Keyboards/Francais.keymapping


and place this in your ~/.xinitrc:
xmodmap -e 'keycode 66 = Mode_switch'
exec xterm -geometry 80x20+34+0 -ls -sb -rightbar -si -sl 10000 -j &
exec quartz-wm

xmodmap is necessary to get the Alt key working for special characters on the French keyboard,
and quartz-wm starts the quartz window manager
as for xterm, this one has a right scrollbar and 10000 lines cache.
