# -Q2.B.3- bind the arrow key on my Sun keyboard?

    From: -II-  Tk Questions and Answers - How can I:

    A2.B.3. You have to call it <Left> rather than <R10>.  Under X11, keys are
    referred to by their keysym.  One can use either xmodmap -pk or the xev
    program to determine what the keysym a particular key on a keyboard is
    currently generating.

    If the keysym that is being used is not known by Tk, you may have to edit
    its ks_names.h file.  There is a note in this file that indicates that
    one should not edit it - but this is where the keysym must be for it to
    be recognized.

    Thanks to Wayne Christopher <faustus@CS.Berkeley.EDU> for this
    note.
