     XStringToKeysym(3X)                      XStringToKeysym(3X)



     NAME
          XStringToKeysym, XKeysymToString, XKeycodeToKeysym,
          XKeysymToKeycode - convert keysyms

     SYNOPSIS
          KeySym XStringToKeysym(string)
                char *string;

          char *XKeysymToString(keysym)
                KeySym keysym;

          KeySym XKeycodeToKeysym(display, keycode, index)
                Display *display;
                KeyCode keycode;
                int index;

          KeyCode XKeysymToKeycode(display, keysym)
                Display *display;
                KeySym keysym;

     ARGUMENTS
          display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

          index     Specifies the element of KeyCode vector.

          keycode   Specifies the KeyCode.

          keysym    Specifies the KeySym that is to be searched
                    for or converted.

          string    Specifies the name of the KeySym that is to
                    be converted.

     DESCRIPTION
          Valid KeySym names are listed in <X11/keysymdef.h> by
          removing the XK_ prefix from each name.  If the
          specified string does not match a valid KeySym,
          XStringToKeysym returns NoSymbol.

          The returned string is in a static area and must not be
          modified.  If the specified KeySym is not defined,
          XKeysymToString returns a NULL.

          The XKeycodeToKeysym function uses internal Xlib tables
          and returns the KeySym defined for the specified
          KeyCode and the element of the KeyCode vector.  If no
          symbol is defined, XKeycodeToKeysym returns NoSymbol.

          If the specified KeySym is not defined for any KeyCode,
          XKeysymToKeycode returns zero.
