+ \page qt-embedded-kmap2qmap.html
+ \title kmap2qmap
+ \ingroup qt-embedded-linux
+
+ \c kmap2qmap is a tool to generate keymaps for use on Embedded Linux.
+ The source files have to be in standard Linux \c kmap format that is
+ e.g. understood by the kernel's \c loadkeys command. 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).
