I doubt it. GdkKeymap already makes more assumptions about how keyboards work than are really portable. If something isn't portable, we can't make it portable by adding it to GDK :-) (Two things that we probably will add are: - Support for modifiers beyond control/alt/shift, with some sort of "virtual modifiers" approach. - Support for tracking Caps_Lock (and maybe other modifier) state (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=107000) Regards, Owen _______________________________________________ gtk-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
