Xkb provides functions to add a single new element to the top-level
keyboard geometry. In each case the num_ * fields of the
corresponding structure is incremented by 1. These functions do not
change sz_* unless there is no more room in the array. Some of these
functions fill in the values of the element's structure from the
arguments. For other functions, you must explicitly write code to
fill the structure's elements.
The top-level geometry description includes a list of geometry
properties. A geometry property associates an arbitrary string with
an equally arbitrary name. Programs that display images of keyboards
can use geometry properties as hints, but they are not interpreted by
Xkb. No other geometry structures refer to geometry properties.
A geometry contains an arbitrary number of shapes, each of which is
made up of an arbitrary number of outlines. XkbAddGeomShape adds a
shape to a geometry geom by allocating space for sz_outlines outlines
for it and giving it the name specified by name. If a shape with
name name already exists in the geometry, a pointer to the existing
shape is returned. XkbAddGeomShape returns NULL if any of the
parameters is empty or if it was not able to allocate space. To
allocate space for an arbitrary number of geometry shapes, use
XkbAllocGeomShapes.

Xkb provides functions to add a single new element to the top-level

corresponding structure is incremented by 1. These functions do not

A geometry contains an arbitrary number of shapes, each of which is
