.SH NAME
showkey \- examine the codes sent by the keyboard
.SH SYNOPSIS
-showkey [-h|--help] [-a|--ascii] [-s|--scancodes] [-k|--keycodes]
+showkey [\-h|\-\-help] [\-a|\-\-ascii] [\-s|\-\-scancodes] [\-k|\-\-keycodes]
.SH DESCRIPTION
.IX "showkey command" "" "\fLshowkey\fR command"
.LP
.SH THEORY
The usual PC keyboard produces a series of scancodes for each
key press and key release. (Scancodes are shown by
-\fBshowkey -s\fP, see showkey(1).)
+\fBshowkey \-s\fP, see showkey(1).)
The kernel parses this stream of scancodes, and converts it to
a stream of keycodes (key press/release events).
(Keycodes are shown by \fBshowkey\fP.)
(It might be best to confine oneself to the range 1-239.)
.LP
In 2.6 kernels raw mode, or scancode mode, is not very raw at all.
-The code returned by showkey -s will change after use of setkeycodes.
+The code returned by showkey \-s will change after use of setkeycodes.
A kernel bug. See also
.BR showkey (1).
