XkbAllocGeomOverlayKeys(3)					   XKB FUNCTIONS					XkbAllocGeomOverlayKeys(3)

NAME
XkbAllocGeomOverlayKeys - Allocate keys in an overlay row SYNOPSIS
Status XkbAllocGeomOverlayKeys ( row, num_needed ) XkbRowPtr row; int num_needed; ARGUMENTS
- row section for which rows should be allocated - num_needed number of new rows required DESCRIPTION
Xkb provides a number of functions to allocate and free subcomponents of a keyboard geometry. Use these functions to create or modify key- board geometries. Note that these functions merely allocate space for the new element(s), and it is up to you to fill in the values explic- itly in your code. These allocation functions increase sz_* but never touch num_* (unless there is an allocation failure, in which case they reset both sz_* and num_* to zero). These functions return Success if they succeed, BadAlloc if they are not able to allocate space, or BadValue if a parameter is not as expected. XkbAllocGeomOverlayKeys allocates num_needed keys and adds them to the row. No initialization of the keys is done. DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage BadValue An argument is out of range X Version 11 libX11 1.2.1 XkbAllocGeomOverlayKeys(3)

NAME
XkbAllocGeomSections - Allocate geometry sections SYNOPSIS

Shopt -s histappend

What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file. # When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it shopt -s histappend (3 Replies)
