XKeysymToKeycode() converts KeySyms to keycodes. You can find the keysyms in <X11/keysymdef.h>, e.g. XK_percent for '%'. Or you can look at the output from "xmodmap -pk", and add the XK_ prefix. Or you can enumerate the keyboard mapping yourself with XGetKeyboardMapping() and call XKeysymToString() on each KeySym. You probably don't need to explicitly send Alt/Shift/etc events; simply setting the state field in the XKeyEvent structure should suffice. -- Glynn Clements <gl...@gclements.plus.com> _______________________________________________ xorg mailing list xorg@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/xorg
