I was asked by a user today to assist them in the following task. They wish to assign the control-F1 key sequence on their Sun keyboard to the action of locking the screen. Since the keyboard shortcut dialog for this release doesn't have a "lock the screen" action, I invoked the New Custom Shortcuts dialog and entered this new command: xterm -e /usr/openwin/bin/xscreensaver-command -lock which is what appears to work from an xterm command line. Then, I clicked in the shortcut area, and typed the control and F1 keys. The value <Control>F1 appears in the column. I then close the shortcut dialog. I have tried pressing the key sequence in various places around the screen, and none appear to invoke the command. So, what do I need to do to tell the user to get this to work? -- Tcl - The glue of a new generation. <URL: http://wiki.tcl.tk/ > Larry W.
