[SOLVED] Redefine Keyboard (with xmodmap)

Hello List,
I just discovered Arch Linux and need to know if there are ways to redefine the keys of the keyboard. I used xmodmap to do this in Ubuntu, and I need a custom keyboard for Emacs use.
Thanks for any hints

PS
Registering is a pain ... I used my usual eshell for the 'answer', but to no avail, only after switching to a normal (gnome) terminal window things worked out. Not really a warm welcome for new users, five minutes more and I would have abandoned the idea of trying Arch linux.

Ok, I see, there is keycaps and xorg-xmodmap in the package lists. So never mind this question.
