One more thing I forgot to note in my haste. I think its the pointer resources you want to find and bind to a key stroke event. The easiest fix would be to use the number keypad, i.e. turn NUMLOCK on and use the arrows on that keypad to navigate the mouse pointer. But we all know that there is the feared hand in the Linux Frontend that makes working with the Frontend impossible with NUMLOCK active. Also, in Linux, as you probably already know, there are many window managers and two popular desktop environments all of which can be customized and at some point definitions of resources start to clash undesirably. I'll leave the rest of the snooping around to you. Apologies for the top post :-). Cheers Yas On Wed, 9 Nov 2005, Steven T. Hatton wrote: > On Tuesday 08 November 2005 10:55 am, Yasvir A.
