I had gotten used to Alt-Tab doing the Windows thing on Athena 9.0, and
it didn't work while I was using spy-hunter, W92 Test Cluster's SunBlade.
It does, however, work on other Suns, Linux boxes, and SGI O2s.
Playing with xev reveals that on Ultras, the left Alt key and the left
diamond key map to Meta_L, while spy-hunter reported that the left Alt
key was Alt_L and the diamond was Meta_L (Diamond-Tab did what Alt-Tab
should have). I haven't looked carefully to see if any other mappings
were inconsistent with other Suns.
