Huh? Emacs groks alt, hyper, meta, super. I guess it would be possible to add gold, if you need that. I see no direct connection between this and `direct' Emacs names for the modifiers. Emacs has no name for the 42nd key, yet it is clearly possible to bind more than 42 keys. Maybe you could consider the fifth modifier to be the compose key? (Keysym Multi_key I think.) Or you could consider Num_Lock and Scroll_Lock to be modifiers. -- ~/.signature is: umop ap!sdn (Frank Nobis)
