NAME
X11::Keysyms - Perl module for names of X11 keysyms
SYNOPSIS
use X11::Keysyms '%Keysyms', qw(MISCELLANY XKB_KEYS LATIN1);
%Keysyms_name = reverse %Keysyms;
$ks = $Keysyms{'BackSpace'};
$name = $Keysysms_name{$ks};
DESCRIPTION
This module exports a hash mapping the names of X11 keysyms, such as
'A' or 'Linefeed' or 'Hangul_J_YeorinHieuh', onto the numbers that
represent them. The first argument to 'use' is the name of the variable
the hash should be exported into, and the rest are names of subsets of
the keysysms to export: one or more of
'MISCELLANY', 'XKB_KEYS', '3270', 'LATIN1', 'LATIN2',
'LATIN3', 'LATIN4', 'KATAKANA', 'ARABIC', 'CYRILLIC',
'GREEK', 'TECHNICAL', 'SPECIAL', 'PUBLISHING', 'APL',
'HEBREW', 'THAI', 'KOREAN'.
If this list is omitted, the list
'MISCELLANY', 'XKB_KEYS', 'LATIN1', 'LATIN2', 'LATIN3',
'LATIN4', 'GREEK'
is used.
