Description:
     view your keyboard layout   
--------------------------------

This tool is developed to diplay all the
characters you can 
produce with your Keyboard. If you use an US
Layout you may 
find this tool needless because "xkbprint :0.0"
allready 
prints everything you wanna know.

Installation:
 The Package "xkb_view.tar.gz" contains source and
binary.

Usage:
 1.) click on "build table" 
 2.) save either an plain textfile(utf8) or an
html-table.

How it works : 
 * create and import temporary xkb File with
"kbcomp :0.0 -xkb /tmp/currentXKB" 
 * search and import: keysymdef.h 
 * build table with unicode-characters instead of
keysyms 

customize Keyboard layout (on your own risk !) 
  /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols/

this Program is tested on: 
 * X-Version 11.0 
 * Qt: 3.3.7 
 * KDE: 3.5.5

this Program build with: 
  qt3-designer ( qt-version 3.3.7. )
