+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The XkbIndicatorChangesRec identifies small modifications to the indicator map.
+Use it with the function
+.I XkbChangeIndicators
+to reduce the amount of traffic sent to the server (see STRUCTURES).
+
+The
+.I state_changes
+field is a mask that specifies the indicators that have changed state, and
+.I map_changes
+is a mask that specifies the indicators whose maps have changed.
+
+.I XkbChangeIndicators
+copies any maps specified by
+.I changes
+from the keyboard description,
+.I xkb,
+to the server specified by
+.I dpy.
+If any bits are set in the
+.I state_changes
+field of
+.I changes, XkbChangeIndicators
+also sets the state of those indicators to the values specified in the
+.I state
+mask. A 1 bit in
+.I state
+turns the corresponding indicator on, a 0 bit turns it off.
+
+In addition, it can also generate XkbIndicatorStateNotify and
+XkbIndicatorMapNotify events.
+
+Whenever an indicator changes state, the server sends XkbIndicatorStateNotify events
+to all interested clients. Similarly, whenever an indicator's map changes, the
+server sends XkbIndicatorMapNotify events to all interested clients.
+
+To receive XkbIndicatorStateNotify events, use
+.I XkbSelectEvents
+with both the
+.I bits_to_change
+and
+.I values_for_bits
+parameters containing XkbIndicatorStateNotifyMask. To receive XkbIndicatorMapNotify
+events, use
+.I XkbSelectEvents
+with XkbIndicatorMapNotifyMask.
+
+To receive events for only specific indicators, use
+.I XkbSelectEventDetails.
+Set the
+.I event_type
+parameter to XkbIndicatorStateNotify or XkbIndicatorMapNotify, and set both the
+.I bits_to_change
+and
+.I values_for_bits
+detail parameters to a mask where each bit specifies one indicator, turning on those
+bits that specify the indicators for which you want to receive events.
+
+.I xkb_type
+is either XkbIndicatorStateNotify or XkbIndicatorMapNotify, depending on whether the
+event is a kbIndicatorStateNotify event or kbIndicatorMapNotify event.
+
+The
+.I changed
+parameter is a mask that is the bitwise inclusive OR of the indicators that have
+changed. If the event is of type XkbIndicatorMapNotify,
+.I changed
+reports the maps that changed. If the event is of type XkbIndicatorStateNotify,
+.I changed
+reports the indicators that have changed state.
+.I state
+is a mask that specifies the current state of all indicators, whether they have
+changed or not, for both XkbIndicatorStateNotify and IndicatorMapNotify events.

+Both types of indicator events use the same structure:
+
+.nf
+ typedef struct _XkbIndicatorNotify {
+ int type; /\(** Xkb extension base event code */
+ unsigned long serial; /\(** X server serial number for event */
+ Bool send_event; /\(** True => synthetically generated */
+ Display * display; /\(** server connection where event generated */
+ Time time; /\(** server time when event generated */
+ int xkb_type; /\(** specifies state or map notify */
+ int device; /\(** Xkb device ID, will not be XkbUseCoreKbd*/
+ unsigned int changed; /\(** mask of indicators with new state or map */
+ unsigned int state; /\(** current state of all indicators */
+ } XkbIndicatorNotifyEvent;
