Oops - so it does. I'll make a note to fix this in the next build of my 
viewer.

It looks like this viewer has the same problem (to be expected really, as 
I'm using the ORL Mac->X keyboard translation code unchanged).


Charlie, it looks like the problem is probably inside AssesModifiers. It 
looks like:

  testmod(optionKey,XK_Alt_L);
  testmod(rightOptionKey,XK_Alt_R);
		testmod(alphaLock,XK_Alt_L);
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
		testmod(rightOptionKey,XK_Caps_Lock);
          ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Presumably the second XK_Alt_L line should be dropped, and XK_Caps_Lock 
should be detected with alphaLock?
