.TH MK_MODMAP 8 "2002-02-22" "kbd"
.SH NAME
mk_modmap \- translate a Linux keytable file into an xmodmap file
.SH SYNOPSIS
.B mk_modmap
[
.B -v
]
keymap_file
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.B mk_modmap
command tries to translate a Linux console keytable file into
a file that can be parsed by xmodmap, and used within X.
It outputs the results to standard out.
.P
If the
.B -v
flag is used, verbose output is given.
.P
It requires the X header files to be installed.
(In Debian, these are in the "xlibs-dev" package).
.SH NOTES
Since XFree version 2.1, X initialises its keymap using the Linux
keymap, so xmodmap will often be superfluous.
