+keysym resulting from translation
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+.I mods_rtrn
+is backfilled with the modifiers consumed by the translation process.
+.I mods
+is a bitwise inclusive OR of the legal modifier masks: ShiftMask, LockMask,
+ControlMask, Mod1Mask, Mod2Mask, Mod3Mask, Mod4Mask, Mod5Mask.The
+AlwaysConsumeShiftAndLock library control (see below), if enabled, causes
+.I XkbTranslateKeyCode
+to consume shift and lock.
+.I XkbTranslateKeyCode
+returns True if the translation resulted in a keysym, and False if it resulted
+in NoSymbol.
+
+The AlwaysConsumeShiftAndLock control, if enabled, forces
+.I XLookupString
+to consume the Shift and Lock modifiers when processing all keys, even if the
+definition for the key type does not specify these modifiers. The
+AlwaysConsumeShiftAndLock control is unset by default.
