XHPInputRoman8(3X) — X Version 11

Release 5

NAME

XHPInputRoman8 − map keysyms into Roman8 characters.

SYNOPSIS

int XHPInputRoman8(display, keysym, modifiers, buffer_return, bytes_buffer, status_in_out)

     Display *display;
     KeySym *keysym;
     unsigned int modifiers;
     char *buffer_return;
     int bytes_buffer;
     XComposeStatus *status_in_out;

DESCRIPTION

display Specifies the connection to the X server.

keysym Specifies the keysym that is to be converted into a Roman8 character.

modifiers Specifies the modifiers to be applied to the keysym.

buffer_return Returns the translated characters.

bytes_buffer Specifies the length of the buffer. No more than bytes_buffer of translation are returned.

status_in_out Specifies the XComposeStatus structure.

XHPInputRoman8 will convert keysym into a Roman8 character, if appropriate. It will also handle the input of muted characters. It will use status_in_out to hold the state information necessary to do this. This structure must contain null values before this routine is first invoked, and must remain unchanged between uses.

This routine will also process the control modifier.

This routine is intended to be used in conjunction with XHPConvertLookup

RETURN VALUE

The return value is the length of the string returned in buffer_return.
