NAME

       xkbcli interactive-evdev — interactive debugger for XKB keymaps

SYNOPSIS

       xkbcli interactive-evdev [options]

DESCRIPTION

       xkbcli  interactive-evdev  is  a  commandline  tool  to  interactively  debug XKB keymaps by listening to
       /dev/input/eventX evdev devices.

       xkbcli interactive-evdev requires permission to open the evdev device nodes.  This usually requires being
       the “root” user or belonging to the “input” group.

       Press the ⟨Escape⟩ key to exit.

       This is a debugging tool, its behavior or output is not guaranteed to be stable.

       --help  Print help and exit

       --include PATH
               Add the given path to the include path list.  This option is order-dependent, include paths given
               first are searched first.  If an include path is given, the default  include  path  list  is  not
               used.  Use ---include-defaults to add the default include paths.

       --include-defaults
               Add  the default set of include directories.  This option is order-dependent, include paths given
               first are searched first.

       --short
               Do not print layout nor Unicode keysym translation.

       --report-state-changes
               Report changes to the keyboard state

       --without-x11-offset
               Don't add an offset of 8 when converting an evdev keycode to an XKB keycode.  You probably  don't
               want this option.
