XKBCLI-INTERACTIVE-EVDEV(1) General Commands ManualXKBCLI-INTERACTIVE-EVDEV(1)

NAME
       xkbcli-interactive-evdev	-- interactive debugger	for X Keyboard keymaps

SYNOPSIS
       xkbcli-interactive-evdev	[options] [KEYMAP_PATH]

DESCRIPTION
       xkbcli-interactive-evdev	 is  a commandline tool	to interactively debug
       XKB keymaps by listening	to /dev/input/eventX evdev devices.

       xkbcli-interactive-evdev	requires permission to open the	 evdev	device
       nodes.  This usually requires being the "root" user or belonging	to the
       "input" group.

       Press the <Escape> key to exit.

       This  is	 a debugging tool, its behavior	or output is not guaranteed to
       be stable.

	       paths.

       --include-defaults
