3 | * This module converts keysym values into the corresponding ISO 10646
|
---|
4 | * (UCS, Unicode) values.
|
---|
5 | *
|
---|
6 | * The array keysymtab[] contains pairs of X11 keysym values for graphical
|
---|
7 | * characters and the corresponding Unicode value. The function
|
---|
8 | * keysym2ucs() maps a keysym onto a Unicode value using a binary search,
|
---|
9 | * therefore keysymtab[] must remain SORTED by keysym value.
|
---|
10 | *
|
---|
11 | * The keysym -> UTF-8 conversion will hopefully one day be provided
|
---|
12 | * by Xlib via XmbLookupString() and should ideally not have to be
|
---|
13 | * done in X applications. But we are not there yet.
|
---|
14 | *
|
---|
15 | * We allow to represent any UCS character in the range U-00000000 to
|
---|
16 | * U-00FFFFFF by a keysym value in the range 0x01000000 to 0x01ffffff.
|
---|
17 | * This admittedly does not cover the entire 31-bit space of UCS, but
|
---|
18 | * it does cover all of the characters up to U-10FFFF, which can be
|
---|
19 | * represented by UTF-16, and more, and it is very unlikely that higher
|
---|
20 | * UCS codes will ever be assigned by ISO. So to get Unicode character
|
---|
21 | * U+ABCD you can directly use keysym 0x0100abcd.
