As a relative newcomer to X I would like some help on modifying the
keyboard map for xterm.

I am using a Sun workstation and would like to have certain keys
generate strings, but different strings for shifted, control etc.

For example, I would like the end key to generate "esc->" unshifted
but "esc-." shifted.

I have read the manual page for xterm and realise I need to use
the translations resource (I think) but can not figure
how to get the result I wish.

Any help greatly appreciated.
