In the final section of .icewm/preferences you can set various window key
options; as I use VNC a lot from within Windows I wanted to map some
alternate keys and have the following:-

KeySysSwitchNext="Alt+Ctrl+slash"
KeySysSwitchLast="Alt+Ctrl+period"

KeySysMenu="Alt+Ctrl+comma"

There are also these settings on about line 90 that influence the action
of the Windows key:-

#  Support win95 keyboard keys (Penguin/Meta/Win_L,R shows menu)
# Win95Keys=0 # 0/1

#  Treat Penguin/Meta/Win modifier as Ctrl+Alt
# ModMetaIsCtrlAlt=1 # 0/1

I leave mine set to default.
