keysyms(3)

NAME

X11::Keysyms - Perl module for names of X11 keysyms

SYNOPSIS

use  X11::Keysyms  '%Keysyms',  qw(MISCELLANY   XKB_KEYS
LATIN1);
%Keysyms_name = reverse %Keysyms;
$ks = $Keysyms{'BackSpace'};
$name = $Keysysms_name{$ks};

DESCRIPTION

This module exports a hash mapping the names of X11
keysyms, such as 'A' or 'Linefeed' or 'Hangul_J_Yeorin
Hieuh', onto the numbers that represent them. The first
argument to 'use' is the name of the variable the hash
should be exported into, and the rest are names of subsets
of the keysysms to export: one or more of
'MISCELLANY', 'XKB_KEYS', '3270', 'LATIN1', 'LATIN2',
'LATIN3', 'LATIN4', 'KATAKANA', 'ARABIC', 'CYRILLIC',
'GREEK', 'TECHNICAL', 'SPECIAL', 'PUBLISHING', 'APL',
'HEBREW', 'THAI', 'KOREAN'.
If this list is omitted, the list

'MISCELLANY', 'XKB_KEYS', 'LATIN1', 'LATIN2', 'LATIN3',
'LATIN4', 'GREEK'
is used.
