+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The
+.I group_info
+field of an XkbSymMapRec is an encoded value containing the number of groups of
+symbols bound
+to the
+key as well as the specification of the treatment of out-of-range groups. It is
+legal for a
+key to
+have zero groups, in which case it also has zero symbols and all events from
+that key yield
+NoSymbol.
+To obtain the number of groups of symbols bound to the key, use
+.I XkbKeyNumGroups.
+To change the number of groups bound to a key, use
+.I XkbChangeTypesOfKey.
+To obtain a mask that determines the treatment of out-of-range groups, use
+.I XkbKeyGroupInfo
+and
+.I XkbOutOfRangeGroupInfo.
+
+The keyboard controls contain a
+.I groups_wrap
+field specifying the handling of illegal groups on a global basis. That is, when
+the user
+performs an
+action causing the effective group to go out of the legal range, the
+.I groups_wrap
+field specifies how to normalize the effective keyboard group to a group that is
+legal for the
+keyboard as a whole, but there is no guarantee that the normalized group will be
+within the
+range of
+legal groups for any individual key. The per-key
+.I group_info
+field specifies how a key treats a legal effective group if the key does not
+have a type
+specified for
+the group of concern. For example, the Enter key usually has just one group
+defined. If the
+user
+performs an action causing the global keyboard group to change to Group2, the
+.I group_info
+field for the Enter key describes how to handle this situation.
+
+Out-of-range groups for individual keys are mapped to a legal group using the
+same options as
+are used
+for the overall keyboard group. The particular type of mapping used is
+controlled by the bits
+set in
+the
+.I group_info
+flag, as shown in Table 1.
