When I press XF86TouchpadOn + Left I want it to mimic Home button pressed.

I tried xbindkeys, with xvkbd and with xdotool but none worked.

Here's my .xbindkeysrc

"xvkbd -xsendevent -text '\[Next]'"
  XF86TouchpadOn + 2

"xvkbd -xsendevent -text '\[Prior]'"
  XF86TouchpadOn + 8

"xvkbd -xsendevent -text '\[Home]'"
  XF86TouchpadOn + 4

"xvkbd -xsendevent -text '\[End]'"
  XF86TouchpadOn + 6

Note Left Right etc. are swapped by 4 6 etc. because once xbindkeys is running - arrow keys don't work (neither singularly nor in XF86TouchpadOn-combo; they get completely blocked) and that prevents me from using the terminal easily.

So, what are alternatives to xbindkeys that allows me mimic a keypress when a key-combination, that does not have modifier-key in it, is pressed.

Alternatively, is there a way to make keys behave conditionally? E.g. when CapsLk is on, letter remain small but arrow keys become page navigation keys?
