XF86Keys.

Hi,

I have a funky keyboard with lots of buttons along the top (like Back,
Forward, Stop, Refresh, etc.).  I use a number of these in fluxbox by
defining them in my keys file.

  However -- can anybody suggest a way I can make the XF86Back key work
in firebird?  Previously I have hacked the keyboard file so that it
generates an ALT+Left (essentially back) but I wonder if there is an
easier way.

  Maybe I should email the firebird developers and see if they would
consider adding native support for this key?  I understand quite a few
keyboards provide it now, through XFree86.  Is this a good idea?

  Thanks very much,

-lewiz.
