I didn't get any responses to my question. Perhaps this is not a type
of adjustment many people make, or I worded my question wrong.
What-ever it was I have been able to accomplish what I needed to do.
Mainly I needed to turn off auto repeat to only a select number of keys
instead of "all or none"
I found this can be accomplished by first typing "xmodmap -pk" to
determine keycodes for each particular key. The left column gives key
codes and the right column gives the key description( ie. F10 ). Next
you use the xset command with a "-r" option to turn off the auto
repeat. If you specify a specific key it will only turn auto-repeat off
for that key.
xset -r 12 (where 12 was the keycode for "F1")
If I went through and mapped each key exactly like open-windows, I
should get the same mask as shown above.
