You know 'xmodmap -pm'?

You know xev that tells you a key's keysym and keycode?

Did you use syntax like

	clear Mod1
	clear Mod2
	keycode 66 = Meta_L
	add Mod1 = Meta_L

How and when do you try to tell X11 the new key meanings?

$ sumascii BILL GATES
   B   I   L   L   G   A   T   E   S
  66+ 73+ 76+ 76+ 71+ 65+ 84+ 69+ 83 = 663

  and add 3 because he's Bill Gates the third.
