Now now.. ;o)
I didn't mean to send just a "yes" answer... Got a phone call
and I believe I hit CTRL-X instead of CTRL-O to postpone.. Duh
on my part.
Back to topic... Yes - you can program the logo keys in text
mode using the "loadkeys" program. Of course you need to read
the docs for loadkeys first, although it isn't difficult to use.
By default the Win keys are console strafing keys.
In X, you use xmodmap and setxkbmap, along with the appropriate
config files as well.
man loadkeys
man xmodmap
man setxkbmap
Hope this proves more useful than did "yes". ;o)
Don't worry, I'm very very far from Redmond, never been there,
never will. ;o)
Good luck.
