XKB FUNCTIONS                            XkbTranslateKeySym(3x11)



NAME
     XkbTranslateKeySym - Find the string and  symbol  associated
     with a keysym for a given keyboard state

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

     int XkbTranslateKeySym  (Display  *dpy,  KeySym  *sym_inout,
          unsigned   int   mods,   char  *buf,  int  nbytes,  int
          *extra_rtrn);

ARGUMENTS
     - dpy
          connection to X server

     - sym_inout
          symbol to be translated; result of translation

     - mods
          modifiers to apply to sym_inout

     - buf
          buffer into which returned string is written

     - nbytes
          size of buffer in bytes

     - extra_rtrn
          number of bytes overflow

DESCRIPTION
     XkbTranslateKeySym applies the transformations specified  in
     mods to the symbol specified by sym_inout. It returns in buf
     the string, if any,  associated  with  the  keysym  for  the
     current  locale.  If the transformations in mods changes the
     keysym, sym_inout is  updated  accordingly.  If  the  string
     returned  is  larger than nbytes, a count of bytes that does
     not  fit  into  the  buffer  is  returned   in   extra_rtrn.
     XkbTranslateKeySym  returns  the  number  of bytes it placed
     into buf.

RETURN VALUES
     buf            Returns the string, if any,  associated  with
                    the keysym for the current locale.
