|
|
Finally,
|
|
to complete the description of a key,
|
|
a flag which describes
|
|
the effect of caps lock and num lock
|
|
on that key is given.
|
|
The flag can be
|
|
.Ql C
|
|
to indicate that caps lock affects the key,
|
|
.Ql N
|
|
to indicate that num lock affects the key,
|
|
.Ql B
|
|
to indicate that both
|
|
caps lock and num lock affects the key,
|
|
or
|
|
.Ql O
|
|
to indicate that neither affects the key.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
An accent key works
|
|
by modifying the behavior
|
|
of the next key pressed.
|
|
The description of an accent begins
|
|
with one of the accent names
|
|
given above.
|
|
This is followed
|
|
by the symbol for the accent,
|
|
given in single quotes or
|
|
as a decimal or hexadecimal
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
value.
|
|
This symbol will be produced
|
|
if the accent key is pressed and
|
|
then the space key is pressed.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The description of the accent key
|
|
continues with a list showing
|
|
how it modifies various symbols,
|
|
by giving pairs made up of the normal symbol and
|
|
the modified symbol
|
|
enclosed in parentheses.
|
|
Both symbols in a pair can be given
|
|
in either single quotes or
|
|
as decimal or
|
|
hexadecimal
|
|
.Tn ASCII
|
|
values.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
For example,
|
|
consider the following extract from a
|
|
.Nm :
|
|
.Bd -literal -offset indent
|
|
041 dgra 172 nop nop '|' '|' nop nop O
|
|
dgra '`' ( 'a' 224 ) ( 'A' 192 ) ( 'e' 232 ) ( 'E' 200 )
|
|
( 'i' 236 ) ( 'I' 204 ) ( 'o' 242 ) ( 'O' 210 )
|
|
( 'u' 249 ) ( 'U' 217 )
|
|
.Ed
|
|
This extract
|
|
configures the backtick key on a UK keyboard
|
|
to act as a grave accent key.
|
|
Pressing backtick followed by space
|
|
produces a backtick, and
|
|
pressing a backtick followed by a vowel
|
|
produces the ISO-8859-1 symbol
|
|
for that vowel with a grave accent.
