[mythtv-users] Lirc keycodes and Myth remote

This is probably an easy question bordering on a dumb question but I have
been googling and trying things all morning and nothing works.

I want to add a command to my programmable learning remote. I first set it
up 10 years ago so do not remember what I did except that I used an old
remote, captured the key codes, then used them to set up lircrc and my
remote. All I want to do is find a key code that is not used and map it to
"T" so I can toggle CC with a single press of my remote.

My problem is that I cannot figure out how to read the key presses of my
old remote. irw will read the key presses of my learning remote but not the
old remote. I tried ir-keytable but I get an error "/sys/class/rc/: No such
file or directory" and googling for solutions there offers suggestions that
do not work.

My question is: how do I read the keycodes of my old remote? If I can do
that, I can edit lircrc and add my new command.
