XtSetKeyTranslator(3Xt)       X11 SDE 5.4R3.00       XtSetKeyTranslator(3Xt)


NAME
       XtSetKeyTranslator, XtTranslateKeycode, XtRegisterCaseConverter,
       XtConvertCase - convert KeySym to KeyCodes

SYNTAX
       void XtSetKeyTranslator(display, proc)
           Display *display;
           XtKeyProc proc;

       void XtTranslateKeycode(display, keycode, modifiers,
       modifiersreturn, keysymreturn)
           Display *display;
           KeyCode keycode;
           Modifiers modifiers;
           Modifiers *modifiersreturn;
           KeySym *keysymreturn;

       void XtRegisterCaseConverter(display, proc, start, stop)
           Display *display;
           XtCaseProc proc;
           KeySym start;
           KeySym stop;

       void XtConvertCase(display, keysym, lowerreturn, upperreturn)
           Display *display;
           KeySym keysym;
           KeySym *lowerreturn;
           KeySym *upperreturn;

ARGUMENTS
       display   Specifies the display.

       keycode   Specifies the KeyCode to translate.

       keysym    Specifies the KeySym to convert.

       keysymreturn
                 Returns the resulting KeySym.

       lowerreturn
                 Returns the lowercase equivalent of the KeySym.

       upperreturn
                 Returns the uppercase equivalent of the KeySym.

       modifiers Specifies the modifiers to the KeyCode.

       modifiersreturn
                 Returns a mask that indicates the modifiers actually used
                 to generate the KeySym.

       proc      Specifies the procedure that is to perform key translations
                 or conversions.

       start     Specifies the first KeySym for which this converter is
                 valid.

       stop      Specifies the last KeySym for which this converter is
                 valid.

DESCRIPTION
       The XtSetKeyTranslator function sets the specified procedure as the
       current key translator.  The default translator is XtTranslateKey, an
       XtKeyProc that uses Shift and Lock modifiers with the interpretations
       defined by the core protocol.  It is provided so that new translators
       can call it to get default KeyCode-to-KeySym translations and so that
       the default translator can be reinstalled.

       The XtTranslateKeycode function passes the specified arguments
       directly to the currently registered KeyCode to KeySym translator.

       The XtRegisterCaseConverter registers the specified case converter.
       The start and stop arguments provide the inclusive range of KeySyms
       for which this converter is to be called.  The new converter
       overrides any previous converters for KeySyms in that range.  No
       interface exists to remove converters; you need to register an
       identity converter.  When a new converter is registered, the
       Intrinsics  refreshes the keyboard state if necessary.  The default
       converter understands case conversion for all KeySyms defined in the
       core protocol.

       The XtConvertCase function calls the appropriate converter and
       returns the results.  A user-supplied XtKeyProc may need to use this
       function.
