decw$terminal.translations solutions?

hi,

I'm working in a mixed enviroment on X where I'm using Decterms (decw$terminal
clients) together with other applications. It's very inconvenient to switch keyboard layout each time when I switch betwen the applications.

My questions is if decw$terminal is able to assign characters and escape sequences to keyboard events (similar to xterm's translation method (xresource xterm*vt100*translations). I've found something on the internet that it can be done with any applications which use XmText widget (I don't know if decterm use this or not).

I've tried a lot of xresources but none of them worked:
decw$terminal.translations: ...
decw$terminal.main.translations: ...
decw$terminal.main.terminal.translations: ...
decw$terminal.XmText.translations: ...
...

I would like to know if decterm is able to do such a translation and if possible then how it can be set up.

Thank you in advance.
Best regards,
Z
