NAME

       itemap - load an ITE (Internal Terminal Emulator) keyboard mapping.

SYNOPSIS

       [options]

DESCRIPTION

       The  command  loads  a keyboard mapping into the ITE (the graphics console driver), or displays ITE keyboard mappings.  is run by automati-
       cally.  It is not usually explicitly invoked by the user.

   Options
	 Dump a keymap to standard output in hexadecimal notation.

	 Load the specified keymap into the kernel mapping table
			used for keyboards.

	 Interactively prompt for a
			keyboard mapping.  scans the keymap database file for all mapping names beginning with a prefix.  Each of these  names	is
			displayed, and one must be selected.

	 The name of the keymap database file to be used for input.
			The default is

	 Load the appropriate keymap.
			scans  the  hardware  for a keyboard, determines the language of that keyboard, and loads the keymap corresponding to that
			keyboard.

			Because cannot determine the language of keyboards, use the option when using with keyboards.

	 Load a specified keyboard map.
			Once loaded, ITE uses the specified mapping.

			When loading a keyboard mapping with the option, matches the suffix of the name of the	specified  keyboard  mapping  with
			those  found in to determine the keyboard language.  This information is used by the ITE to perform ISO 7-to-8 bit conver-
			sion.  Keymap names added by users, via

			should use the same suffixes as those already used in For example, a French keyboard mapping can be named for  consistency
			with  existing	and  mappings.	 A mapping called would not match any suffix patterns found by itemap, and would result in
			incorrect ISO 7-to-8 bit conversion.

	 Load the specified keymap into the kernel mapping table
			used for keyboards.

	 Perform actions verbosely.

	 If a keymap for a
			keyboard is loaded, write its name to file_name.
