man xrusmodmap (Commandes) - version of xmodmap for use with xrus

NAME

xrusmodmap - version of xmodmap for use with xrus

SYNOPSIS

xmodmap [-options ...] [filename]

DESCRIPTION

xrusmodmap is a modified version of xmodmap for use with xrus. The need for xrusmodmap arises because of: (1) standard xmodmap(1) (XFree86-3.3.3 version) has a bug with realloc; and (2) standard xmodmap(1) uses all columns of the keyboard map to find keycodes for the keysym. This causes trouble with Russian keyboard layouts.

This modification of xmodmap adds the option -K, which is used to specify the set of key map columns which are used to find keycodes from keysym. By default it uses two first columns.
