No, no: NoSymbol is perfect! If there is already a symbol (name) set 
for a key, you'll have to re-associate this key with a new symbol:

        keysym F14 = F15        ! not really clever

If you see 'NoSymbol' reported, then it's just a 'free' (unbound) key 
(therefore they all give ASCII-Nul). Right now you have F13...F16 
'defined' in X11, you can use them by pressing the keys LOPT, F14, F15, 
ROPT. To change this you'll need to set:

        keycode 182 = F13
        keycode  93 = F16

After this you'll two F13 and two F16. The left and right option keys 
are useful as modifiers, super and Hyper, if you already have Alt and 
Meta. The more 'modifiers' you have, the more keybindings you can use 
(Alt-super-Shift-Meta-Hyper-Control-F15)!

        keycode 115 = Hyper
        add Mod4 = Hyper
        keycode 115 = super
        add Mod5 = super

You probably know what xmodmap -pm shows? And you probably already 
learned that you can re-map the keys in X11 at once, without re-boot, 
log-off and -in, shutting X11 down and re-launching it?
