X Resource Question




The Xterm manual page contains these entries:

       keymap(name)
               This  action dynamically defines a new translation
               table whose resource name is name with the  suffix
               Keymap  (case  is  significant).   The  name  None
               restores the original translation table.

       Below  is  a  sample how of the keymap() action is used to
       add special keys for entering commonly-typed works:

           *VT100.Translations: #override <Key>F13: keymap(dbx)
           *VT100.dbxKeymap.translations: \
                <Key>F14: keymap(None) \n\
                <Key>F17: string("next") string(0x0d) \n\
                <Key>F18: string("step") string(0x0d) \n\
                <Key>F19: string("continue") string(0x0d) \n\
                <Key>F20: string("print ")

Has anyone used this functionality?  I have tried this backwards,
forwards, and upside down and can't seem to get it to recognize the
second Key Map.  I do a appres  
"appres  XTerm.VT100  xterm.vt100  -1" and it simply doesn't
show up.
