The extension makes possible to clearly and explicitly specify most +aspects of keyboard behaviour on per-key basis and to more closely track the +logical and physical state of the keyboard. It also includes a number of +keyboard controls designed to make keyboards more accessible to people with +physical impairments. + +There are five types of components in the server database corresponing to five +xkb symbolic names: symbols, geometry, keycodes, compat and types which +determine the keyboard behaviour. These five components can combined together +into a resulting keyboard mapping using the 'rules' component. + +The complete specification can be found on +http://www.x-docs.org/XKB/XKBproto.pdf + +For XKB configuration information see 'README.config' file. + +For information how to further enhance XKB configuration see 'README.enhancing' +file. + + +$XFree86$ |
