X Keyboard Extension | ||
-------------------- | ||
|
||
The X Keyboard (XKB) Extension essentially replaces the core protocol | ||
definition of a keyboard. The extension makes it possible to specify | ||
clearly and explicitly most aspects of keyboard behaviour on a per-key | ||
basis, and to track more closely the logical and physical state of a | ||
keyboard. It also includes a number of keyboard controls designed to | ||
make keyboards more accessible to people with physical impairments. | ||
|
||
There are five components that define a complete keyboard mapping: | ||
symbols, geometry, keycodes, compat, and types; these five components | ||
can be combined together using the 'rules' component of the database | ||
provided by this project, xkeyboard-config. | ||
|
||
The complete specification for the XKB Extension can be found here: | ||

xkeyboard-config | ||
---------------- | ||
|
||
This project provides a consistent, well-structured, frequently | ||
released, open source database of keyboard configuration data. The | ||
project is targeted to XKB-based systems. | ||
|
||
For XKB configuration information, see: | ||
|
||
docs/README.config | ||
|
||
For information on how to enhance the database itself, see: | ||
|
||
docs/README.enhancing | ||
|
||
For information on how to replace an older XKB configuration database | ||
with the one provided by this project, see: | ||
|
||
docs/HOWTO.transition | ||
