On Apple and NeXT platforms, if no +.keymapping files are mentioned on the command-line, then it will instead +dissect the key mapping currently in use by the WindowServer and AppKit. + +Documentation includes a thorough and detailed description of the internal +layout of the .keymapping file, as well as an explanation of how to interpret +the output of dumpkeymap. + +The complete set of documentation is available for perusal via dumpkeymap's +manual page (dumpkeymap.1), as well as via the command-line options described +below. + + --help + Usage summary. + --help-keymapping + Detailed discussion of the internal format of a .keymapping file. + --help-output + Explanation of dumpkeymap's output. + --help-files + List of key mapping-related files and directories. + --help-diagnostics + Explanation of diagnostic messages. + +Once the manual page is been installed, documentation can also be accessed +with the Unix `man' command: + + % man dumpkeymap + + +COMPILATION +=========== +MacOS/X, Darwin + + cc -Wall -o dumpkeymap dumpkeymap.c -framework IOKit + +MacOS/X DP4 (Developer Preview 4) + + cc -Wall -o dumpkeymap dumpkeymap.c -FKernel -framework IOKit + +MacOS/X Server, OpenStep, NextStep + + cc -Wall -o dumpkeymap dumpkeymap.c + +By default, dumpkeymap is configured to interface with the HID driver (Apple) +or event-status driver (NeXT), thus allowing it to dump the key mapping which +is currently in use by the WindowServer and AppKit. However, these facilities +are specific to Apple/NeXT. In order to build dumpkeymap for non-Apple/NeXT +platforms, you must define the DUMPKEYMAP_FILE_ONLY flag when compiling the +program. This flag inhibits use of the HID and event-status drivers and +configures dumpkeymap to work strictly with raw key mapping files. + +For example, to compile for Linux: + + gcc -Wall -DDUMPKEYMAP_FILE_ONLY -o dumpkeymap dumpkeymap.c + + +INSTALLATION +============ +Install the dumpkeymap executable image in a location mentioned in the PATH +environment variable.
