I have a Microsoft Ergonomic Keyboard which I am generally enjoying. Unfortunately, it comes with a premade Office key for use in Windows in place of a right Ctrl or Super. I used xev to record what the Office key actually outputs, and it acts as a combination of the Ctrl,Shift,Meta,Super keys.

"Office" key output

Keycode | Name      | Keysym
     37 | Control_L | 0xffe3 |
     50 | Shift_L   | 0xffe1 |
     64 | Meta_L    | 0xffe7 |
    133 | Super_L   | 0xffeb |

I have looked at xmodmap, but it is deprecated in favor of setxkbmap.

Can anybody help me determine how to rebind the key combo above to act as a different modifier, like Ctrl-R or Super-R?

Did you find any solution? I just bought this keyboard and keep pressing „Office” key instead of Win (which I heavily use in shortcuts…)
