I am trying to figure out how to "define a new type in
/usr/share/X11/xkb/types/extra that does the same thing as the current type
used for the space key with right-ctrl hardcoded instead of using iso_level5".
Current type used for the space key is EIGHT_LEVEL, as defined in
"level4n" in symbols/nbsp.
So I try to duplicate EIGHT_LEVEL (defined in types/level5) and append this to
types/extra.
But the syntax is not clear to me. Here is how EIGHT_LEVEL is defined:
virtual_modifiers LevelThree,ScrollLock,LevelFive;
type "EIGHT_LEVEL" {
modifiers = Shift+LevelThree+LevelFive;
map[None] = Level1;
map[Shift] = Level2;
map[LevelThree] = Level3;
map[Shift+LevelThree] = Level4;
map[LevelFive] = Level5;
map[Shift+LevelFive] = Level6;
map[LevelThree+LevelFive] = Level7;
map[Shift+LevelThree+LevelFive] = Level8;
level_name[Level1] = "Base";
level_name[Level2] = "Shift";
level_name[Level3] = "Alt Base";
level_name[Level4] = "Shift Alt";
level_name[Level5] = "X";
level_name[Level6] = "X Shift";
level_name[Level7] = "X Alt Base";
level_name[Level8] = "X Shift Alt";
};
SO we have three types of entries is this file,
- modifiers =
- map[ ] =
- level_name[ ] =
The question is, how to "hardcode" rctrl in this type entry, instead of the
current Level5...
If anybody has a clue on this, until now, I couldn't find my way in xkb docs...
(another question is, how can I tell I am effectively getting a narrow
non breaking space in an app ?(and not a plain space, or a non breaking
space)
