mod2        Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3

(nothing outputs from 'xkbcomp :0')


3. As for the altwin:meta_win, that is not what I want. I want the Windows
key to be a modifier other than Meta. My alt key is already Meta, and that's
just fine.

If the modifier was Mod4, that would be best. If it is something else, I
could handle that too. Right now, it appears the key is simultaneously Mod4
and a normal keypress.

Scott.
