Re: Different scan code behavior in X and console

[郭晓峰]

OK, Just found Ctrl-PgDn (and similar keys) are filtered by Mac &
Windows, it works for Linux. So please skip this question.

I'll keep trying to enable CUA mode in emacs later. Will post my
questions later if still have problems.

Sorry to bother.

Best Regards,
Lamu Guo
