Hi all
I am currently moving all my works to console (not x-terminal), but I
found that I can not use the Emacs keybindings which need to hold
control, alt (meta) and shift at the same time, in other words, C-M-k
works fine but both C-M-S-k and C-M-K dont work (they all work
correctly in X), and the right ALT key also doesn't work.
I have searched the mailing list archieve, and found that it's because
of the console keymap configrations, but the problem is I don't
exactly know how to fix that in the key map file, all key definations
are like this:
----
shift control keycode 53 = Delete
----
as you can see, they use only two modifiers, I don't know if three
ones cases will work, can I define it like this ? :
----
shift alt control keycode 53 = Delete
----
Could anyone give me some ideas or just send me your keymap configration files ?
Thank you.

I don't really remember the details, but here is a diff of the changes I made.
my_keys.bak is the default keymap file on my Debian sid system (what it was a
year ago, anyway). my_keys is the file I use now.
Most of the changes I made were what was needed in order to get M-<punctuation>
bindings working, like M-< and M-!. But maybe the examples will still help.
