Can xmodmap be used to generate multikey events from the
function keys?  I have used xmodmap to map backspace and delete
keys suitably, but the manual page does not clearly indicate how
to map a string ":w[return]" to way the F1 key, or ":!make[return]"
to the F2 key.  Can you do this easily in R3?  In R4?
