NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

       xkbprint - print an XKB keyboard description

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

       xkbprint  [options] source [output_file]

OPTIONS    [Toc]    [Back]

       Prints  a usage message.  Print using the colors specified
       in the geometry  file;   by  default,  xkbprint  prints  a
       black-and-white image of the keyboard.  Attempt to compute
       default names for any missing components,  such  as  keys.
       Show symbols only where they are explicitly bound.  Generate
 an encapsulated PostScript  file.   Fit  the  keyboard
       image  on  the page (default).  Print the keyboard at full
       size.  Print a grid with resmm resolution  over  the  keyboard.
   Specifies  an  internal PostScript type 1 font to
       dump to the specified output file or to  fontName.pfa,  if
       no  output  file  is specified. No keyboard description is
       printed if an internal  font  is  dumped.   Specifies  the
       labels  to  be  printed  on  keys;  legal types are: none,
       name, code, symbols.  Specifies a locale in which  KeySyms
       should  be resolved.  Generate level 1 PostScript.  Generate
 level 2 PostScript.  Print symbols in keyboard  groups
       starting  from  group.   Print symbols starting from shift
       level level.  Generate black-and-white image  of  keyboard
       (default).   Print  num  copies.  Print the symbols in num
       keyboard groups.  Number of keyboard images  to  print  on
       each  page; for EPS files, this specifies the total number
       of keyboard images to print.  Write output to  file.   Use
       directory as the root directory; all path names are interpreted
 relative to directory.  Controls use of pictographs
       instead of keysym names where available.  which can be any
       of all, none, or common(default).  Forces  synchronization
       for  X requests.  Sets warning level (0 for no warning, 10
       for all warnings).

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

       The xkbprint command generates a printable or encapsulated
       PostScript  description  of  the  XKB keyboard description
       specified by source.   The  source  can  be  any  compiled
       keymap (.xkm) file that includes a geometry description or
       an X display specification.  If an output_file  is  specified,
  xkbprint writes to it.  If no output file is specified,
 xkbprint  creates  replaces  the  extension  of  the
       source file with or depending on the requested format.  If
       the source is a non-local  X  display  (e.g.:0),  xkbprint
       appends  the  appropriate prefix to the display specification,
 replacing the colon with a dash.  For a  local  display,
  xkprint  uses server-n where n is the number of the
       display.
