This means you + can use the following sources to generate \c qmap files: + + \list + \o The \l {http://lct.sourceforge.net/}{Linux Console Tools (LCT)} project. + \o \l {http://www.x.org/}{Xorg} X11 keymaps can be converted to the \c + kmap format with the \c ckbcomp utility. + \o Since \c kmap files are plain text files, they can also be hand crafted. + \endlist + + The generated \c qmap files are size optimized binary files. + + \c kmap2qmap is a command line program, that needs at least 2 files as + parameters. The last one will be the generated \c .qmap file, while all + the others will be parsed as input \c .kmap files. For example: + + \code + kmap2qmap i386/qwertz/de-latin1-nodeadkeys.kmap include/compose.latin1.inc de-latin1-nodeadkeys.qmap + \endcode + + \c kmap2qmap doesn't support all the (pseudo) symbols that the Linux + kernel supports. If you are converting a standard keymap you will get a + lot of warnings for things like \c Show_Registers, \c Hex_A, etc.: you + can safely ignore those. + + It also doesn't support numeric symbols (e.g. \c{keycode 1 = 4242}, + instead of \c{keycode 1 = colon}), since these are deprecated and can + change from one kernel version to the other. + + On the other hand, \c kmap2qmap supports one additional, Qt specific, + symbol: \c QtZap. The built-in US keymap has that symbol mapped tp + \c{Ctrl+Alt+Backspace} and it serves as a shortcut to kill your QWS + server (similiar to the X11 server). + + See also \l {Qt for Embedded Linux Character Input} +*/ |
