The only thing to keep in mind is that NeXT has reserved the  
Alt-Control combination as the "Help" modifier.  So for example, you  
wouldn't want to implement an Alt-Right Mouse function since that  
couldn't be translated to the NeXT version (where Right Mouse  
translates to Control).

(If you're wondering how NeXT gets a Command key on NS/Intel, I  
believe that they're reserving one of the two Alt keys on the PC  
keyboard as the Command key---don't remember which one.)
