MK_MODMAP(8)							  MK_MODMAP(8)

NAME
       mk_modmap - translate a Linux keytable file into an xmodmap file

SYNOPSIS
       mk_modmap [ -v ] keymap_file

DESCRIPTION
       The  mk_modmap command tries to translate a Linux console keytable file
       into a file that can be parsed by xmodmap, and used within X.  It  out‐
       puts the results to standard out.

       If the -v flag is used, verbose output is given.

       It  requires the X header files to be installed.	 (In Debian, these are
       in the "xlibs-dev" package).

NOTES
       Since XFree version 2.1, X  initialises	its  keymap  using  the	 Linux
       keymap, so xmodmap will often be superflous.

       dumpkeys(1), keymaps(5), xmodmap(1)
