XkbLookupKeySym(3)                              XKB FUNCTIONS                             XkbLookupKeySym(3)



NAME
       XkbLookupKeySym - Find the symbol associated with a key for a particular state

SYNOPSIS
       Bool XkbLookupKeySym ( dpy, key, state, mods_rtrn, sym_rtrn )
             Display *dpy;
             KeyCode key;
             unsigned int state;
             unsigned int *mods_rtrn;
             KeySym *sym_rtrn;

ARGUMENTS
       - dpy  connection to X server

       - key  key for which symbols are to be found

       - state
              state for which symbol should be found

       - mods_rtrn
              backfilled with unconsumed modifiers

       - sym_rtrn
              backfilled with symbol associated with key + state

DESCRIPTION
       XkbLookupKeySym  is the equivalent of the core XLookupKeySym function. For the core keyboard, given a
       keycode key and an Xkb state state, XkbLookupKeySym returns the symbol associated  with  the  key  in
       sym_rtrn and the list of modifiers that should still be applied in mods_rtrn.  The state parameter is
       the state from a KeyPress or KeyRelease event.  XkbLookupKeySym returns True if it succeeds.
