No, no! Xmodmap is a basic utility of X11. If you haven't installed X11, then of course you have only something basic before you. The developer packages usually contain C header files and static libraries. Of course you can count compiler packages to the developer packages. And sometimes (I think with Fedora always) you also get the source code for the packages, except they are third party drivers, for example for the graphics adapter. Commonly X11 is started (and personalised) with the help of a little script ~/.xinitrc or ~/.xsession. Templates for these files contain invocations of xrdb (to load and set X resources), xset (to set the path to X11 font repositories), and xmodmap, to correct the meaning of keyboard keys, particularly to set modifier keys like shift, control, alt, hyper, super, compose. And xmodmap allows you to swap left and right mouse buttons, which the left hand might like when you used for the pointing device. -- Greetings Pete Got Mole problems? Call Avogadro 6.02 x 10^23
