NAME
XmTranslateKey--The default keycode-to-keysym translator
SYNOPSIS
#include <Xm/Xm.h>
void XmTranslateKey (display, keycode, modifiers, modifiers_return,
keysym_return) 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: new translators with
expanded functionality can call it to get the default Motif keycode-
to-keysym translation in addition to whatever they add, and so that
the default translator can be reinstalled. This function enables
keysyms defined by the Motif virtual bindings to be used when an
application requires its own XtKeyProc to be installed.
display Specifies the display that the keycode is from
keycode Specifies the keycode to translate
modifiers Specifies the modifier keys to be applied to the keycode
modifiers_return
Specifies a mask of the modifier keys actually used to
generate the keysym (an AND of modifiers and any default
modifiers applied by the currently registered
translator)
keysym_return
Specifies a pointer to the resulting keysym
