Please, what is the output of identify key when you press the "1" key
and "Shift+1" key?

I think that I see what's going wrong: in the info-mode-menu there is
no modifier allowed and your ! is on shift+1 (I think).
I have to change the keysym code part to allow ! without the shift.
It's in the TODO.
BTW, I think I'll rebind them on some more standard keys (like "e" for
exec, "v" for eval...).

I don't like this idea too! I try to make CLFSWM as indepedant of
keyboard layout as possible.
