X keyboard mapping depends on general X* files or on a user-specific Xmodmap file (~/.Xmodmap). The Linux FrontEnd Help Browser lets see you examine how Mathematica uses this keyboard mapping, but you cannot edit it within Mathematica. Also note that the NumLock and ScrollLock keys affect the FrontEnd behaviour. Email to me if you want my own .Xmodmap file. jmt On Sat, 04 Mar 2000, Laurent Jacques wrote: > Hello all, > > I'm new user of Mathematica 4.0 and I try to install a trial version on > a Linux network (for others users). > Unfortunately, I have the following troubles. > > Apparently, the correct fonts are loaded (Type1 and X) but sometimes the > backspace key doesn't respond. > Instead of a backspacing it's just a spacing. > In addition, when this doesn't work, it is impossible to select with the > mouse one line of the notebook. > (instead, all lines are selected).
