I was just asked if it is possible to write an application in X which
is sort of similar to the keykaps of the Macintosh.  It has a window
which represents the keyboard and when the image of a key is clicked
in it it simulates that key event so that the focused window thinks
that key has actually been presed.

I could not think of any way of doing this under X.V10 - or X.V11 for
that matter.  Since it would be very useful to be able to do this if
you get a package that presumes the full lk201 keyboard I was
wondering if anyone out there could tell me how to do this.
