     keyboard modifiers

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lX11 [ library... ]

     Bool  XkbLockModifiers  (Display  *display,   unsigned   int
          device_spec, unsigned int affect, unsigned int values);

ARGUMENTS
     display
          connection to the X server

     values
          1 => lock, 0 => unlock; only for modifiers selected  by
          affect

DESCRIPTION
     XkbLockModifiers sends a request to the server to  lock  the
     real  modifiers  selected  by  both affect and values and to
     unlock the  real  modifiers  selected  by  affect,  but  not
     selected  by  values.  XkbLockModifiers  does not wait for a
     reply from the server. It returns True if  the  request  was
     sent, and False otherwise.

     The functions in this section that change the use of  modif-
     iers  use  a  mask  in the parameter affect. It is a bitwise
     inclusive OR of the legal modifier masks:
