XmTranslateKey(X3mot)
XmTranslateKey --
the default keycode-to-keysym translator
Synopsis
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmTranslateKey (display, keycode, modifiers, modifiers_return, keysym_return)
Display *display;
KeyCode keycode;
Modifiers modifiers;
Modifiers *modifiers_return;
KeySym *keysym_return;
Description
XmTranslateKey is the default XtKeyProc translation
procedure for Motif applications. The function takes a keycode
and modifiers and returns the corresponding keysym.
XmTranslateKey serves two main purposes: new translators
with expanded functionality can call it to get the default
Motif keycode-to-keysym translation in addition to whatever they add,
and so that the default translator can be reinstalled. This function enables
keysyms defined by the Motif virtual bindings to be used when an
application requires its own XtKeyProc to be installed.
