XtSetKeyTranslator(3Xt)XtSetKeyTranslator(3Xt)NAME
XtSetKeyTranslator, XtTranslateKeycode, XtRegisterCaseConverter, XtCon‐
vertCase - convert KeySym to KeyCodes
SYNOPSIS
void XtSetKeyTranslator(display, proc)
Display *display;
XtKeyProc proc;
void XtTranslateKeycode(display, keycode, modifiers, modifiers_return,
keysym_return)
Display *display;
KeyCode keycode;
Modifiers modifiers;
Modifiers *modifiers_return;
KeySym *keysym_return;
void XtRegisterCaseConverter(display, proc, start, stop)
Display *display;
XtCaseProc proc;
KeySym start;
KeySym stop;
void XtConvertCase(display, keysym, lower_return, upper_return)
Display *display;
KeySym keysym;
KeySym *lower_return;
KeySym *upper_return;
ARGUMENTS
Specifies the display. Specifies the KeyCode to translate. Specifies
the KeySym to convert. Returns the resulting KeySym. Returns the low‐
ercase equivalent of the KeySym. Returns the uppercase equivalent of
the KeySym. Specifies the modifiers to the KeyCode. Returns a mask
that indicates the modifiers actually used to generate the KeySym.
Specifies the procedure that is to perform key translations or conver‐
sions. Specifies the first KeySym for which this converter is valid.
Specifies the last KeySym for which this converter is valid.
DESCRIPTION
The XtSetKeyTranslator function sets the specified procedure as the
current key translator. The default translator is XtTranslateKey, an
XtKeyProc that uses Shift and Lock modifiers with the interpretations
defined by the core protocol. It is provided so that new translators
can call it to get default KeyCode-to-KeySym translations and so that
the default translator can be reinstalled.
The XtTranslateKeycode function passes the specified arguments directly
to the currently registered KeyCode to KeySym translator.
The XtRegisterCaseConverter registers the specified case converter. The
start and stop arguments provide the inclusive range of KeySyms for
which this converter is to be called. The new converter overrides any
previous converters for KeySyms in that range. No interface exists to
remove converters; you need to register an identity converter. When a
new converter is registered, the Intrinsics refreshes the keyboard
state if necessary. The default converter understands case conversion
for all KeySyms defined in the core protocol.
The XtConvertCase function calls the appropriate converter and returns
the results. A user-supplied XtKeyProc may need to use this function.
