A buttonmap sometimes can be compressed. ! Assuming this file is named "custom.kmap.gz", try: ! sudo \ ! loadkeys \ ! --clearstrings \ ! --clearcompose \ ! custom.kmap.gz > results 2>&1 ! That sends any output and errors to the "results" document. ! Use "sudo loadkeys --default" for restoring the default keymap ! unless "defkeymap.map" is non-existent. Or reboot to restore. ! See manual for "keymaps" and "showkey", too. ! Use "loadkeys -b" with a keymap in order to produce a binary ! suitable for busybox. Note busybox has "loadkmap" instead. ! Use "dumpkeys -l" for information about support by the system. ! Information last obtained... ! Keycode range supported by kernel: 1 - 255 ! Max number of actions bindable to a key: 256 ! Number of keymaps in actual use: 128 ! of which 121 dynamically allocated ! Ranges of action codes supported by kernel: [blank] ! Number of function keys supported by kernel: 256 ! Max number of compose definitions: 256 ! number of compose definitions in actual use: 0 ! ! Also lists symbols recognized. Notably, F246 was highest ! function key symbol. There were ten other possibilities: ! Find, Insert, Remove, Select, Prior, ! Next, Macro, Help, Do, Pause. ! Within the console the Control modifier is effective with only ! the ASCII values 1-31, known by the values: a-z, and [ \ ] ^ _ ! So, there is "Control_a" but no "Control_A". Null is "nul". ! Contrarily, the Meta modifier modifies the ASCII values 0-127, ! therefore both "Meta_a" and "Meta_A" are available. ! Together, there is "Meta_Control_a" but no "Meta_Control_A", ! because no "Control_A". ! There are usually 256 possible combinations of 9 modifier keys ! in addition to the unmodified key (plain). Thereby, 257 total ! and all on the same line. ! Setting only the unmodified key (column 0) automatically sets ! all the modified combinations to that value, too, which is a ! requirement for assigning a modifier to a keycode. ! For example: ! keycode 29=Control ! is the same as repeating the name "Control" 256 more times for ! the other 256 columns on the line. ! The first value (column 0) is for the unmodified key, the ! second value (column 1) is when modified by shift, and so on. ! plain 0 ! shift 1 altgr 2 control 4 alt 8 ! shiftl 16 shiftr 32 ! ctrll 64 ctrlr 128 ! capsshift 256 ! Or instead, each desired combination for a keycode can be set ! individually by listing modifier names prior to the keycode, ! one combination per line. ! A plus sign + before the value means the shifted value will be ! returned when caps lock is active. ! For example, it is quite common to need to type a variable ! named with multiple words separated by underscores while using ! all uppercase letters. That is automatic with shift lock ! which allows typing all the shifted values. Caps lock usually ! allows typing the shifted values of only a to z, then requires ! using shift for other keys as needed. Alternatively, allow ! typing an underscore with capslock without having to use the ! shift key for underscore (from the minus key). Presuming the ! keycode is 12 for the key: ! keycode 12=+minus underscore ! Additionally, a plus sign before the shifted value means the ! plain value is returned when using both caps lock and shift: ! keycode 16=q +Q ! Oddly, it seems a-z need the plus sign for caps lock, too, so: ! keycode 16=+q +Q ! Text can be set for any key rather than only one character. ! Such texts are usually associated with the function keys ! F30-F246 (typically unavailable on keyboards). For example: ! commands for the command interpreter or for emacs; a common ! phrase or statement; some other console code. After defining ! text for a symkey, associate that symkey with a keycode for a ! button. Type that button once to produce the whole text for ! whatever program currently has focus. ! ! string F30="\030r" ! Control x (octal value) and r for emacs ! keycode 58=F30 ! 58 is the caps lock button ! ! string F31="\160\141\163\163\167\157\162\144" ! password ! keycode 183=F31 ! 183 is the F13 key ! ! string F32="\012" ! newline and HTML paragraph mark ! shift keycode 28=F32 ! Return button with shift modifier ! ! Actual control characters are also okay, as typed with the ! command `quoted-insert' (C-q) in emacs. ! Optionally, declare which columns are being defined. ! Multiple values and ranges are allowed, comma separated. !keymaps 0,1,4,5,8,9,12,13 ! Only: plain, shift, control, alt. keymaps 0-127 ! Default keymap defines 0-127. Override all. !
