NAME¶
XmTranslateKey — The default keycode-to-keysym translator
"XmTranslateKey"
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmTranslateKey(
Display *display,
KeyCode keycode,
Modifiers modifiers,
Modifiers *modifiers_return,
KeySym *keysym_return);
DESCRIPTION¶
XmTranslateKey is the default
XtKeyProc translation procedure for
Motif applications. The function takes a keycode and modifiers and returns the
corresponding keysym.
XmTranslateKey serves two main purposes: to enable new translators with
expanded functionality to get the default Motif keycode-to-keysym translation
in addition to whatever they add, and to reinstall the default translator.
This function enables keysyms defined by the Motif virtual bindings to be used
when an application requires its own XtKeyProc to be installed.
