XStringToKeysym(3X)						  XLIB FUNCTIONS					       XStringToKeysym(3X)

NAME

       XStringToKeysym - convert keysyms

SYNTAX

       KeySym XStringToKeysym(string)
	     char *string;

ARGUMENTS

       string	 Specifies the name of the KeySym that is to be converted.

DESCRIPTION

       To obtain the name of the KeySym to the KeySym code, use XStringToKeysym.

       Standard KeySym names are obtained from <X11/keysymdef.h> by removing the XK_ prefix from each name.  KeySyms that are not part of the Xlib
       standard also may be obtained with this function.  The set of KeySyms that are available in this manner and the mechanisms by which Xlib
       obtains them is implementation dependent.

       If the KeySym name is not in the Host Portable Character Encoding, the result is implementation dependent.  If the specified string does
       not match a valid KeySym, XStringToKeysym returns NoSymbol.

       The returned string is in a static area and must not be modified.  The returned string is in the Host Portable Character Encoding.  If the
       specified KeySym is not defined, XKeysymToString returns a NULL.
