I have tested both XFCE4 and CTWM window managers, just in case F1 key was
captured as a keyboard shortcut. I think I am missing something. Could F1
key be captured by another program and not working in Linrad as expected?
You can probably configure the window manager to act on it, but it should
nevertheless be passed to applications.
You can test with xev(1), for me it works just fine:
KeyPress event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x3af, subw 0x0, time 27666792, (345,2), root:(1232,76),
state 0x0, keycode 67 (keysym 0xffbe, F1), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
KeyRelease event, serial 37, synthetic NO, window 0x3600001,
root 0x3af, subw 0x0, time 27666992, (345,3), root:(1232,77),
state 0x0, keycode 67 (keysym 0xffbe, F1), same_screen YES,
