.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.ZN XLookupKeysym
|
|
|
|
function uses a given keyboard event and the index you specified to return
|
|
|
|
the KeySym from the list that corresponds to the KeyCode member in the
|
|
|
|
.ZN XKeyPressedEvent
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
.ZN XKeyReleasedEvent
|
|
|
|
structure.
|
|
|
|
If no KeySym is defined for the KeyCode of the event,
|
|
|
|
.ZN XLookupKeysym
|
|
|
|
returns
|
|
|
|
.ZN NoSymbol .
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.ZN XRefreshKeyboardMapping
|
|
|
|
function refreshes the stored modifier and keymap information.
|
|
|
|
You usually call this function when a
|
|
|
|
.ZN MappingNotify
|
|
|
|
event with a request member of
|
|
|
|
.ZN MappingKeyboard
|
|
|
|
or
|
|
|
|
.ZN MappingModifier
|
|
|
|
occurs.
|
|
|
|
The result is to update Xlib's knowledge of the keyboard.
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.ZN XLookupString
|
|
|
|
function translates a key event to a KeySym and a string.
|
|
|
|
The KeySym is obtained by using the standard interpretation of the
|
|
|
|
.ZN Shift ,
|
|
|
|
.ZN Lock ,
|
|
|
|
group, and numlock modifiers as defined in the X Protocol specification.
|
|
|
|
If the KeySym has been rebound (see
|
|
|
|
.ZN XRebindKeysym ),
|
|
|
|
the bound string will be stored in the buffer.
|
|
|
|
Otherwise, the KeySym is mapped, if possible, to an ISO Latin-1 character
|
|
|
|
or (if the Control modifier is on) to an ASCII control character,
|
|
|
|
and that character is stored in the buffer.
|
|
|
|
.ZN XLookupString
|
|
|
|
returns the number of characters that are stored in the buffer.
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
If present (non-NULL),
|
|
|
|
the
|
|
|
|
.ZN XComposeStatus
|
|
|
|
structure records the state,
|
|
|
|
which is private to Xlib,
|
|
|
|
that needs preservation across calls to
|
|
|
|
.ZN XLookupString
|
|
|
|
to implement compose processing.
|
|
|
|
The creation of
|
|
|
|
.ZN XComposeStatus
|
|
|
|
structures is implementation-dependent;
|
|
|
|
a portable program must pass NULL for this argument.
|
|
|
|
.LP
|
|
|
|
The
|
|
|
|
.ZN XRebindKeysym
|
|
|
|
function can be used to rebind the meaning of a KeySym for the client.
|
|
|
|
It does not redefine any key in the X server but merely
|
|
|
|
provides an easy way for long strings to be attached to keys.
|
|
|
|
.ZN XLookupString
|
|
|
|
returns this string when the appropriate set of
|
|
|
|
modifier keys are pressed and when the KeySym would have been used for
|
|
|
|
the translation.
|
|
|
|
No text conversions are performed;
|
|
|
|
the client is responsible for supplying appropriately encoded strings.
|
|
|
|
Note that you can rebind a KeySym that may not exist.
