Help on configuring keyboard on Cygwin/x on Windows XP


The situation is this: I _sadly_ have Windows XP on this laptop only because i must. My employer requires it :-(

I installed Cygwin and Cygwin/X. I was thrilled to see that emacs& started out in its own X11 window with the great graphic logo introduction and clickable menus. So that part works fine.

But I have trouble setting the keyboard mapping for Emacs and xterm.

It may have got something to do with xmodmap. But I can't figure out how.

I prefer that Emacs accepts input from my Faroese keyboard, or at least Danish if need be. Whatever I do, the US keyboard mapping is in effect always. How do I change that? I mean, for every X11 application?
