NAME
       kbin - external keyboard input

SYNOPSIS
       bind -a #Ι /dev
       /dev/kbin

DESCRIPTION
       The  kbin  device is a PC driver that serves a one-level directory con‐
       taining a single file, kbin, which can be used to  send	keyboard  scan
       codes to the kernel.

       Kbin  is	 necessary for usb(4) drivers that handle keyboards.  Keyboard
       input is processed as described in cons(3).  The scan codes  correspond
       to  the PC keyboard used by the cons(3) driver and can be translated by
       the kbmap(3) device.
