5 .TH XKBPRINT 1 __xorgversion__
7 xkbprint \- print an XKB keyboard description
10 [options] source [ output_file ]
15 command generates a printable or encapsulated PostScript description of the
16 XKB keyboard description specified by \fIsource\fP. The \fIsource\fP can be
17 any compiled keymap (.xkm) file that includes a geometry description or an
18 X display specification. If an \fIoutput_file\fP is specified, xkbprint
19 writes to it. If no output file is specified, xkbprint creates replaces
20 the extension of the source file with \fI.ps\fP or \fI.eps\fP depending
21 on the requested format. If the source is a non-local X display (e.g.:0),
22 xkbprint appends the appropriate prefix to the display specification,
23 replacing the colon with a dash. For a local display, xkprint uses
24 server-\fIn\fP where \fIn\fP is the number of the display.
28 Prints a usage message.
31 Print using the colors specified in the geometry file; by default, xkbprint
32 prints a black-and-white image of the keyboard.
35 Attempt to compute default names for any missing components, such as keys.
38 Show symbols only where they are explicitly bound.
41 Generate an encapsulated PostScript file.
44 Fit the keyboard image on the page (default).
47 Print the keyboard at full size.
50 Print a grid with \fIres\fPmm resolution over the keyboard.
52 .B \-if\ \fIfontName\fP
53 Specifies an internal PostScript type 1 font to dump to the specified
54 output file or to \fIfontName\fP.pfa, if no output file is specified.
55 No keyboard description is printed if an internal font is dumped.
57 .B \-label\ \fItype\fP
58 Specifies the labels to be printed on keys; legal types are: \fInone\fP,
59 \fIname\fP,\fIcode\fP,\fIsymbols\fP.
61 .B \-lc\ \fI<locale>\fP
62 Specifies a locale in which KeySyms should be resolved.
65 Generate level 1 PostScript.
68 Generate level 2 PostScript.
71 Print symbols in keyboard groups starting from \fIgroup\fP.
74 Print symbols starting from shift level \fIlevel\fP.
77 Generate black-and-white image of keyboard (default).
80 Print \fInum\fP copies.
83 Print the symbols in \fInum\fP keyboard groups.
86 Number of keyboard images to print on each page; for EPS files, this
87 specifies the total number of keyboard images to print.
90 Write output to \fIfile\fP.
93 Use \fIdirectory\fP as the root directory; all path names are interpreted
94 relative to \fIdirectory\fP.
97 Controls use of pictographs instead of keysym names where available.
98 \fIwhich\fP can be any of \fIall\fP, \fInone\fP, or \fIcommon\fP(default).
101 Forces synchronization for X requests.
104 Sets warning level (0 for no warning, 10 for all warnings).
