             char *string;

       char *XKeysymToString(keysym)
             KeySym keysym;

       KeySym XKeycodeToKeysym(display, keycode, index)
             Display *display;
             KeyCode keycode;
             int index;

       KeyCode XKeysymToKeycode(display, keysym)
             Display *display;
             KeySym keysym;

       void XConvertCase(keysym, lower_return, upper_return)
             KeySym keysym;
             KeySym *lower_return;
             KeySym *upper_return;

ARGUMENTS
       display   Specifies the connection to the X server.

       index     Specifies the element of KeyCode vector.

       keycode   Specifies the KeyCode.

       keysym    Specifies the KeySym that is to be searched for
                 or converted.

       lower_return
                 Returns the lowercase form of keysym, or keysym.

       string    Specifies the name of the KeySym that is to be
                 converted.

       upper_return
                 Returns the uppercase form of keysym, or keysym.

DESCRIPTION
       Standard KeySym names are obtained from <X11/keysymdef.h>
       by removing the XK_ prefix from each name.  KeySyms that
       are not part of the Xlib standard also may be obtained
       with this function.  The set of KeySyms that are available
       in this manner and the mechanisms by which Xlib obtains
       them is implementation-dependent.

       If the KeySym name is not in the Host Portable Character
       Encoding, the result is implementation-dependent.  If the

       specified string does not match a valid KeySym, XString-
       ToKeysym returns NoSymbol.

       The returned string is in a static area and must not be
       modified.  The returned string is in the Host Portable
       Character Encoding.  If the specified KeySym is not
       defined, XKeysymToString returns a NULL.

       The XKeycodeToKeysym function uses internal Xlib tables
       and returns the KeySym defined for the specified KeyCode
       and the element of the KeyCode vector.  If no symbol is
       defined, XKeycodeToKeysym returns NoSymbol.

       If the specified KeySym is not defined for any KeyCode,
       XKeysymToKeycode returns zero.

       The XConvertCase function returns the uppercase and lower-
       case forms of the specified Keysym, if the KeySym is sub-
       ject to case conversion; otherwise, the specified KeySym
       is returned to both lower_return and upper_return.  Sup-
       port for conversion of other than Latin and Cyrillic
       KeySyms is implementation-dependent.
