.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility
|
|
is used for controlling all aspects of keyboard configuration for the 'pcvt'
|
|
video driver.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The available options are:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width flag
|
|
.It Fl d Ar delay
|
|
Specifies the delay after which the last key entered will be repeated by the
|
|

1000 milliseconds.

|
|
.It Fl m Ar map
|
|
Specifies the map entry to be searched in the keyboard capabilities database
|

The database is searched for the entry and if found, the mapping
|
|
is loaded and is used in the driver from then on.
|
|
.It Fl o
|
|
Switches display of control codes to octal in the listing of the current map.
|
|
To be used in conjunction with the
|
|
.Fl l

|
option.
|
|
.It Fl r Ar rate
|
|
Specifies the character repetition rate.

Valid argument values are 0...31
|
|
corresponding to rates of 30 characters/second ...\& 2 characters/second.
|
|
.It Fl R
|
|
Reset the Keyboard.
|
|
.It Fl s
|
|
Displays the current settings of the rate and delay values.
|
|
.It Fl t Ar +/-

or disable
|
|
.Pq Ar -
|
|
the repetition of keys.
|
|
.It Fl x
|
|
Switches display of control codes to hexadecimal in the listing of the current map.
|
|
To be used in conjunction with the
|
|
.Fl l

|
option.

.Sh EXAMPLES
|
|
The command
|
|
.Dq Li kcon -m gb
|
|
loads the entry 'gb' from the keycap file into the keyboard to switch to
|
|
a british keyboard behaviour.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The command
|
|
.Dq Li kcon -r 0 -d 0
|
|
switches the keyboard to emit characters at a rate of 30 characters per second
|
|
after a key has been held down for 250 milliseconds.
|

|
.Xr keycap 5
|
|
.Sh BUGS
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility detects several inconsistencies in the keycap database.
|
|
In case of errors
|
|
.Nm
|
|
exits with an error message.
|
|
If this happens, the keyboard may remain in
|
|
an undefined state.
|
|
To recover from such situation, execute
|
|
.Dq Li kcon -m default .
