This directory contains the raw data for mapping between different keyboard codes. Naming if often based on the US keyboard layout, but does not indicate the symbol actually generated by the key. The columns currently in this data set are: Linux ----- Name and value of the hardware independent keycodes used by the linux kernel and exposed through the input subsystem. References: linux/input.h macOS ----- Low level key codes as exposed by Mac OS X/macOS. References: Carbon/HIToolbox/Events.h PC scan code sets ----------------- Scan codes for the three orignal PC keyboard generations: Set 1: XT Set 2: AT Set 3: PS/2 The sets include codes for modern keys as well and not just the keys present on those original keyboards. References: linux/drivers/input/keyboard/atkbd.c USB HID ------- Codes as specified by the HID profile in USB. References: linux/drivers/hid/usbhid/usbkbd.c Windows Virtual-key codes ------------------------- The low level, hardware independent "VKEYs" exposed by Windows. References: mingw32/winuser.h XWin XT ------- X11 keycodes generated by the XWin server. Based on the XT scan code set. References: xorg-server/hw/xwin/{winkeybd.c,winkeynames.h} Xfree86 KBD XT -------------- X11 keycodes generated by the Xfree86 keyboard drivers. Based on the XT scan code set. References: xf86-input-keyboard/src/at_scancode.c X11 keysyms ----------- Corresponding X11 keysym value(s) for a US keyboard layout. WARNING: These columns represent symbols, not physical keys, and should be used with extreme care.
