XkbGetSlowKeysDelay \- Gets the SlowKeys acceptance delay for a keyboard device

.BI "unsigned int *" "delay_rtrn" "\^);"

.SH ARGUMENTS
.TP
.I \- display
connection to X server
.TP
.I \- device_spec
device ID, or XkbUseCoreKbd
.TP
.I \- delay_rtrn
backfilled with SlowKeys delay, ms
.SH DESCRIPTION
.LP
Some users may accidentally bump keys while moving a hand or typing stick toward
the key they want. Usually, the keys that are accidentally bumped are just hit
for a very short period of time. The SlowKeys control helps filter these
accidental bumps by telling the server to wait a specified period, called the
.I SlowKeys acceptance delay,
before delivering key events. If the key is released before this period elapses,
no key events are generated. Users can then bump any number of keys on their way
to the one they want without accidentally getting those characters. Once they
have reached the key they want, they can then hold the desired key long enough
for the computer to accept it. SlowKeys is a boolean control with one
configurable attribute.
When the SlowKeys control is active, the server reports the initial key press,
subsequent acceptance or rejection, and release of any key to interested clients
by sending an appropriate AccessXNotify event (see section 10.6.4).
The server can generate XkbAccessXNotify events for some of the global keyboard
controls.
The detail field describes what AccessX event just occurred and can be any of
the values in
Table 1.

Table 1 AccessXNotify Events
_
detail Reason
_
XkbAXN_SKPress T{
A key was pressed when SlowKeys was enabled.
T}
XkbAXN_SKAccept T{
A key was accepted (held longer than the SlowKeys delay).
T}
XkbAXN_SKRelease T{
An accepted SlowKeys key was released.
T}
XkbAXN_SKReject T{
A key was rejected (released before the SlowKeys delay expired).
T}
XkbAXN_BKAccept T{
A key was accepted by BounceKeys.
T}
XkbAXN_BKReject T{
A key was rejected (pressed before the BounceKeys delay expired).
T}
XkbAXN_AXKWarning T{
AccessXKeys is about to turn on/off StickyKeys or BounceKeys.
T}
.TE
The
.I keycode
field reports the keycode of the key for which the event occurred. If the action
is related to
.I SlowKeys,
the
.I slowKeysDelay
field contains the current SlowKeys acceptance delay. If the action is related
to BounceKeys,
the
.I debounceDelay
field contains the current BounceKeys debounce delay.
Selecting for AccessX Events
To receive XkbAccessXNotify events under all possible conditions, use
.I XkbSelectEvents
and pass XkbAccesXNotifyMask in both
.I bits_to_change
and
.I values_for_bits.
To receive XkbStateNotify events only under certain conditions, use
.I XkbSelectEventDetails
using XkbAccessXNotify as the
.I event_type
and specifying the desired state changes in
.I bits_to_change
and
.I values_for_bits
using mask bits from Table 2.

.TE
.I XkbGetSlowKeysDelay
requests the attributes of the SlowKeys control from the server, waits for a
reply and backfills
.I delay_rtrn
with the SlowKeys delay attribute.
.I XkbGetSlowKeysDelay
returns True if successful; ,
.I XkbGetSlowKeysDelay
returns False.
.SH "RETURN VALUES"
.TP 15
True
The
.I XkbGetSlowKeysDelay
function returns True if the request of the Slowkeys control from the server was
successful.
.I
.TP 15
False
The
.I XkbGetSlowKeysDelay
function returns False if a compatible version of the Xkb extension is not
available in the server.
.SH STRUCTURES
.LP
The structure for the XkbAccessXNotify event type is as follows:
