DESCRIPTION

This program can be used to set various options available in the XKB extensions. This includes such things as mousekeys where one can use the numeric pad keys to move the mouse; stickykeys where modifiers like control and shift will lock until the next key press (good for one finger typing); slowkeys where the keys will not work unless they are pressed for a certain amount of time; and bouncekeys in which if a key is pressed more than once rapidly, only one key press will be registered.

OPTIONS

- ------------------- b

b

The b option controls whether the bell is switched on or off. - ------------------- h

h

The h option (or no options) will type a rather helpful usage message - definitely more informative than this unfinished man page. - ------------------- perkeyrepeat

perkeyrepeat hex-mask

With this option, hex-mask is a sequence of 64 hex digits, representing 32 bytes. These bytes represent which keys will autorepeat, and which will not. The 8n+kth key will autorepeat if the kth bit of the nth byte is set. See also the r or the repeatkey option. - ------------------- r

repeatkeys|r [key-code | rate delay [interval] ]

The r or repeatkey option can be used to control the autorepeat feature. By itself, it can switch the autorepeat on or off. Followed by a single number, it can be used to switch autorepeat on or off for that particular keycode (see also the perkeyrepeat option). Followed by rate, it can be used to set the time in milliseconds after the key is pressed before autorepeat will start, and optionally the time in milliseconds between the key repeats.
