Annotation of 43BSDTahoe/new/X/xterm/Xlib/README, revision 1.1.1.1

1.1       root        1: This directory contains a changes to the Xlib routines XKeyBind.c:
                      2: 
                      3: XKeyBind.c:    This will allow (in the future) to define keymaps with
                      4:                the environment variable KEYBD.  This is needed, for example,
                      5:                when I log into a Sun from some other workstation.  Then, on
                      6:                the Sun, I wish to pop a window back on my workstation.  Since
                      7:                the default keymap would be for the Sun, if I were on some
                      8:                other workstation, my keyboard would be messed up.  I could
                      9:                keep a .Xkeymap file on the Sun, but if I use different
                     10:                workstations to log in, sometimes it might work and other times
                     11:                it wouldn't.  If I were originally on a MicroVax and set
                     12:                my KEYBD environment variable (from the .login file) to
                     13:                mvaxII, for instance, then I would get the right keymap.  From
                     14:                another Sun, I might set KEYBD to sun3.  The names of these
                     15:                keymap files have not yet been established yet.
