That does look un-nice, and not only that but it won't change the keys for
dxmail, dxterm, xmh, and everything but xterm...

It's called xmodmap, there is a man page on our VAX, so you should have one
too.
I feed it this file which changes the <> keys as well as changeing the
big "X in a Triangle like thing" key where the backspace belongs into
a backspace (I use many termanls, and the VAXstation is the only one
with a easy to find Delete key, so I set stty erase ^H...) feel free
to change any or all of it...
keycode 237 = period greater
keycode 232 = comma less
keycode 188 = BackSpace Delete
!0xffff Delete
