My keyboard has a few multimedia keys(XF86AudioRaiseVolume, etc.) and
they have been correctly recognized by X and have keycodes/keysyms. I
can get them work on most programs, but they are not recognized by
programs run inside a terminal emulator(urxvt or xterm, for example).
Specifically, I want to control my emms playlist via
XF86AudioPrev/XF86AudioNext. I have the key bindings in emacs start up
file and it actually works when emacs appears as a standalone X
window. But it fails when emacs is inside a terminal. it appears to
me that the terminal/shell never delivers these key strokes to any
processes spawned by them.
I searched for the keysym/keymap resources in urxvt/xterm but can't
quite catch the idea and don't even know if this helps.
