.SH DESCRIPTION
.\" $Header: XSTKeysym.d,v 1.3 88/06/11 07:52:54 mento Exp $
Standard KeySym names are obtained from
.Pn < X11/keysymdef.h >
by removing the XK_ prefix from each name.
KeySyms that are not part of the Xlib standard also may be obtained
with this function.
Note that the set of KeySysms that are available in this manner 
and the mechanisms by which Xlib obtains them is implementation dependent.
.LP
If the keysym name is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding
the result is implementation dependent.
If the specified string does not match a valid KeySym,
.ZN XStringToKeysym
returns
.ZN NoSymbol .
.LP
.\" $Header: XKTString.d,v 1.3 88/06/11 07:51:44 mento Exp $
The returned string is in a static area and must not be modified.
The returned string is in the Host Portable Character Encoding.
If the specified KeySym is not defined,
.ZN XKeysymToString
returns a NULL.
.LP
.\" $Header: XKTKeysym.d,v 1.4 88/08/20 10:08:36 mento Exp $
The
.ZN XKeycodeToKeysym
function uses internal Xlib tables
and returns the KeySym defined for the specified KeyCode and
the element of the KeyCode vector.
If no symbol is defined,
.ZN XKeycodeToKeysym
returns
.ZN NoSymbol .
.LP
.\" $Header: XKTKeycode.d,v 1.4 88/06/11 07:51:42 mento Exp $
If the specified KeySym is not defined for any KeyCode,
.ZN XKeysymToKeycode
returns zero.
