Problems getting into Twiddler programming mode

I use a software-mapped Dvorak keyboard on my laptop thanks to
loadkeys and xmodmap. I like it. I really really like it. The Twiddler
produces scancodes for a standard QWERTY keyboard, though, which means
it gets royally screwed up on a software-mapped Dvorak layout.

I'm thinking of messiwng around with the alternate keymap found at
http://wearables.blu.org/wear-hard-01/20011863.html once I can figure
out how to get into interactive program mode. N+S RRRR (Enabling
Programming Mode) is not producing any output in emacs, so I have a
vague feeling that something is very wrong with the way I'm keying in
N+S RRRR. My Num key works. My Shift key works. I'm lost. I hit both
of them with my left hand and the four green keys with my right at the
same time. Nothing happens. I switch to loadkeys us and try
again. Nothing happens. I reread the manual to make sure I'm not
missing something. Help! =)

If I don't manage to get this to work, it looks like I'll be shifting
back to QWERTY on my laptop... <pout>
