NAME
     alpq - query the alp STREAMS module

SYNOPSIS
     alpq

DESCRIPTION
     The alpq command takes no arguments or options.  It presents, on its
     standard output, a list of the functions currently registered with the
     alp STREAMS module.  Information on building and using these functions is
     contained in the manual entry alp(7).

     The output list contains such entries as

              1  Ucase    (Upper to lower case converter)


     The first field is a sequence number.  The second field is the function's
     name (by which it may be accessed), and the third field is the function's
     explanation string, enclosed in parentheses.

SEE ALSO
     kbdcomp(1M), kbdload(1M), alp(7), kbd(7).

NOTES
     The alpq command works by pushing the alp STREAMS module, querying it via
     ioctl(2), and then popping it immediately; its standard input (normally
     the user's TTY) must thus be a stream.
