I am motor impaired and find it tedious and stressful to use a mouse.
I can touch type and don't mind learning a few new keystrokes.  I would
like to use X windows with my desktop SUN.  Right now, I am using a
VT-100 hooked up with a wire, but the SUN can fit more lines on its
screen.  Since I use EMACS, X windows requires using a mouse to switch
between telnet windows and the editor.

Is there some way to bind the circulate windows command to one of the
34 function keys on my SUN keyboard?  I would really like something
like the Symbolics interface which lets me press a key and then a
window identifier to quickly select that window.

					Thanks,
					    Seth
