Let me add a few comments. (I don't know if I am allowed to post to the xorg-devel mailing list, so if I am not, maybe Peter could forward this for me.)

First, my man page is horribly incomplete, but the command "xkbset h" gives a rather comprehensive list of all the commands. I had intended to include a lengthy description of how mousekeys can be adjusted, as well as how the accessx feature works. There is a very good and detailed description in the document http://refspecs.freestandards.org/X11/XKBlib.ps, but it embedded in the middle of the document, as this document is meant for programmers, not users.

Note that there are a few of the XKB features which I didn't understand. You will see statements like "What is this?" written in the help message. You might like to fill these in with a correct description of what those XKB features do.

Second, the C source code is actually generated by perl code. I will admit that the generated C code is probably easier to follow than the perl code. But I am kind of proud of the perl code. If you choose to remove the perl code in the code repository, I understand. But then I would like to maintain my code on my website, so that there is at least some record of it.

Third, xkbset is included with some Linux distributions, for example Ubuntu. Maybe they would need to be told that the source code is being moved to the X repository. This is particularly true if it gets placed inside xkbutils.

Fourth, it definitely makes sense to include xkbset in xkbutils.

Thanks, Stephen
