NAME
loadkeys, dumpkeys - load and dump keyboard translation tables
SYNOPSIS
loadkeys [
filename]
dumpkeysDESCRIPTION
loadkeys reads the file specified by
filename, and modifies the
keyboard streams module's translation tables. If no file is
specified,
loadkeys loads the file:
/usr/share/lib/keytables/type_tt/layout_dd, where
tt is the value
returned by the
KIOCTYPE ioctl, and
dd is the value returned by the
KIOCLAYOUT ioctl (see
kb(4M)). These keytable files specify only
the entries that change between the specified layout and the default
layout for the particular keyboard type. On self-identifying
keyboards, the value returned by the
KIOCLAYOUT ioctl is set from
the
DIP switches.
dumpkeys writes the current contents of the keyboard streams module's
translation tables, in the format specified by
keytables(5), to the
standard output.
