+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+Xkb allows applications to obtain information about indicators using two
+different methods. The first method, which is similar to the core X
+implementation, uses a mask to specify the indicators. The second method, which
+is more suitable for applications concerned with interoperability, uses
+indicator names. The correspondence between the indicator name and the bit
+position in masks is as follows: one of the parameters returned from
+.I XkbGetNamedIndicators
+is an index that is the bit position to use in any function call that requires a
+mask of indicator bits, as well as the indicator's index into the
+XkbIndicatorRec array of indicator maps.
+
+
+.I XkbGetIndicatorMap
+obtains the maps from the server for only those indicators specified by the
+.I which
+mask and copies the values into the keyboard description specified by
+.I desc.
+If the
+.I indicators
+field of the
+.I desc
+parameter is NULL,
+.I XkbGetIndicatorMap
+allocates and initializes it.
+
+To free the indicator maps, use
+.I XkbFreeIndicatorMaps.
+.SH DIAGNOSTICS
+.TP 15
+.B BadAlloc
+Unable to allocate storage
+.TP 15
+.B BadMatch
+A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has
+correct type and range, but is otherwise invalid
+.TP 15
+.B BadImplementation
+Invalid reply from server
