No console keys map to the Genera keys #\Line, :RIGHT-SUPER, and :RIGHT-HYPER.
No Genera keys map to the console keys [114 F15, L5 (255,204)], [108 F14, L4 (255,203)], [106 F13, L3 (255,202)],
[083 Keypad Digit Zero (255,176)], [082 Keypad Equals Sign (255,189)],
[077 Keypad Enter (255,141)], [070 Keypad Plus Sign (255,171)], and [053 (000,003)].
Analysis
Let's take, for example, how hitting F6 on the keyboard makes Genera on X11 think you're hitting the ABORT button.
If we look up F6 in the xmodmap -pk output, we see:
105 0xffc3 (F6) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0xffc3 (F6)
And in the Show X Keyboard Mapping output:
Key Shift Symbol Symbol-Shift Console Key
#\Abort #\Abort #\Abort #\Abort 098 F6 (255,195)
Once we modify 0xffc3 to the two bytes 255,195, we find a correspondence.
The file sys>x11>clx>keysyms.lisp seems to contain all the keysyms. However, it doesn't exactly say what we'd expect:
(define-keysym #\abort (keysym 255 105)) ; :function
Okay, what about META?
$ xmodmap -pk |fgrep -ya meta
63 0xffe7 (Meta_L) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0xffe7 (Meta_L)
71 0xffe8 (Meta_R) 0x0000 (NoSymbol) 0xffe8 (Meta_R)
$ fgrep -ya meta default-x-mapping.text
:LEFT-META :LEFT-META :LEFT-META :LEFT-META 056 Left Meta (255,231)
:RIGHT-META :RIGHT-META :RIGHT-META :RIGHT-META 064 Right Meta (255,232)
Then, we have these meta things defined in keysyms.lisp:
(define-keysym :left-meta left-meta-keysym)
(define-keysym :right-meta right-meta-keysym)
And these in translate.lisp:
(defconstant left-meta-keysym (keysym 255 231))
(defconstant right-meta-keysym (keysym 255 232))
That looks like a clear correspondence.
How are these mappings changed? That's yet to come.
What about X-Windows modifier keys?
$ xmodmap -pm
xmodmap: up to 2 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x40), Shift_R (0x44)
lock Caps_Lock (0x41)
control Control_L (0x43), Control_R (0x46)
mod1 Alt_L (0x42), Alt_R (0x45)
mod2 Meta_L (0x3f), Meta_R (0x47)
mod3 Down (0x85)
mod4 Left (0x83)
mod5
However, according to doc.lisp, it uses only control and three of the mods:
;; STATE is also used for setting char-bits:
;; control -> char-control-bit
;; mod-1 -> char-meta-bit
;; mod-2 -> char-super-bit
;; mod-3 -> char-hyper-bit
All the keysym names are defined in x11>screen>x-keysym-names.lisp in *keysym-name-list*. You can of course see this with (print x-screen::*keysym-name-list*) or even just the variable name at the Genera prompt. Some examples from the source file:
(defparameter
*keysym-name-list*
'((000 032 " " :space)
(000 095 "_" :low-line)
(000 096 "`" :GRAVE-ACCENT)
(000 183 "middle dot" :middle-dot)
(004 182 "ka" :kana-letter-ka)
(255 008 "backspace" :backspace :back-space :back-char)
(255 009 "tab" :tab)
(255 200 "f11" :f11 :l1)
(255 211 "f22" :f22 :r2)
(255 232 "right meta" :right-meta)
(255 233 "left alt" :left-alt)
(255 255 "delete" :delete :rubout)))
Next, we have keyboard mappings in screen>keyboards.lisp, such as:
(define-keyboard-mapping :default ()
(:f1 #\Select #\Square)
(:f2 #\Network #\Circle)
(:f3 #\Function #\Triangle)
(:f4 #\Suspend (:mode-lock :locking t))
(:f5 #\Resume)
(:f6 #\Abort)
(:f7 :left-super)
(:f8 :left-hyper)
(:f9 #\Scroll #\Page)
(:f10 #\Clear-Input #\Refresh)
(:f11 #\Complete #\End)
(:f12 #\Help)
Which kinds does it know about? At least these:
$ grep '^(define-keyboard-mapping' keyboards.lisp
(define-keyboard-mapping :default ()
(define-keyboard-mapping :Symbolics ()
(define-keyboard-mapping :sun-type-3 ()
(define-keyboard-mapping :sun-type-4 (:leds ((1 :caps-lock)
(define-keyboard-mapping :sgi-iris (:leds ((1 :caps-lock)
(define-keyboard-mapping :ncd-n-101 (:leds ((1 :mode-lock)
(define-keyboard-mapping :nds (:leds ((1 :mode-lock)
(define-keyboard-mapping :DEC-LK401-AA ()
Keyboards are also defined in embedding>keyboards>keyboards.lisp:
$ fgrep -a define-keyboard-layout keyboards.lisp
(define-keyboard-layout :symbolics
(define-keyboard-layout :sun-type-3
(define-keyboard-layout :sun-type-4
(sys:define-keyboard-layout :sgi-iris
(sys:define-keyboard-layout :ncd-n-101
(sys:define-keyboard-layout :nds
(sys:define-keyboard-layout :DEC-LK401-AA
These mappings can also be seen by using the command Set X Keyboard Mapping [default] and hitting HELP. Furthermore, the keyboard layout themselves can be seen with Show Keyboard Layout and then, again, hitting HELP. For example, Show Keyboard Layout NCD N-101 shows:
We can then do Set X Keyboard Mapping [default] Pcxal-Aa and Show X Keyboard Mapping to see the new mappings:
The default mapping, as a reminder, was:
Xquartz Key Mappings
Versions:
* Xquartz 2.7.10_beta2
* macOS 10.11.5
Notes:
* F14 and F15 are usually set to lower and raise brightness on the Mac. Disable this in System Preferences -> Keyboard -> Shortcuts -> Display
