Title: how to get more keys support by TMK?
Post by: tokyo on Fri, 20 May 2016, 22:12:22

Is there any way to support sending more keycodes (not physical keys on board) in TMK?

example:
  http://wiki.linuxquestions.org/wiki/XF86_keyboard_symbols
  http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xorg/proto/x11proto/tree/XF86keysym.h
  https://wiki.debian.org/Keyboard/MultimediaKeys

You can send HID usages in keyboard page. THose symbols are logical in Xorg environment, OS or Xorg convertes the usages into the smybols somewhere, I don't know more detail about it.

See pp53.
