Keycodes/Shiftstates

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hi all

I'm writing a kernel module, and a particular function I'm using takes
keycodes and shiftstate as parameters.

First of all, is there a list of keycodes I can use?  I used showkey to get
most of the common ones - but is this reliable on all systems?

Next, there is an integer representing the shiftstate, which indicates
whether control, alt, shift, or any combination of these was pressed.  Can
anyone point me to something to indicate which bits represent what?  The
comments above the function prototype said to look at loadkeys and dumpeys
manpages, but I didn't find anything there.

Thanks, Saqib
