<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>
The
<B>mk_modmap</B>
command tries to translate a Linux console keytable file into
a file that can be parsed by xmodmap, and used within X.
It outputs the results to standard out.
<P>
If the
<B>-v</B>
flag is used, verbose output is given.
<P>
It requires the X header files to be installed.
(In Debian, these are in the &quot;xlibs-dev&quot; package).
<A NAME="lbAE">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>NOTES</H2>
Since XFree version 2.1, X initialises its keymap using the Linux
keymap, so xmodmap will often be superfluous.
