Well, I haven't used Pause/Break since perhaps stopping acidwarp on a
dos box in 1992; I haven't used SysRq since dealing with a thrashing
linux box last week.

Scroll Lock, now, that's another story entirely:

spoo:~$ cat .Xmodmap
keysym Caps_Lock = Escape
clear Lock

spoo:~$ 

Lordy, that's useful.  It eliminates my #1 annoyance with vi, namely
having to leave home position to hit Esc all the time.
