About This BookThis book provides programmers with complete, detailed information about keyboard layouts andtranslation tables for national languages supported by the AIX operating system. Translation tables arelisted alphabetically, and complete descriptions are given for the supported languages. Also included is akey to abbreviations used in the tables and an explaination of keyboard states with valid and invalid keysequences.HighlightingThe following highlighting conventions are used in this book:BoldIdentifies commands, subroutines, keywords, files,structures, directories, and other items whose names arepredefined by the system. Also identifies graphical objectssuch as buttons, labels, and icons that the user selects.Identifies parameters whose actual names or values are tobe supplied by the user.Identifies examples of specific data values, examples oftext similar to what you might see displayed, examples ofportions of program code similar to what you might writeas a programmer, messages from the system, orinformation you should actually type.ItalicsMonospaceCase-Sensitivity in AIX Everything in the AIX operating system is case-sensitive, which means that it distinguishes betweenuppercase and lowercase letters. For example, you can use the ls command to list files. If you type LS, thesystem responds that the command is "not found." Likewise, FILEA, FiLea, and filea are three distinct filenames, even if they reside in the same directory. To avoid causing undesirable actions to be performed,always ensure that you use the correct case.ISO 9000ISO 9000 registered quality systems were used in the development and manufacturing of this product.Related PublicationsThe following books contain information about or related to keyboards:v AIX Version 6.1 Commands Reference, Volume 1v AIX Version 6.1 Commands Reference, Volume ionVersionVersion6.16.16.16.16.16.1Commands Reference, Volume 3Commands Reference, Volume 4Commands Reference, Volume 5Commands Reference, Volume 6General Programming Concepts: Writing and Debugging ProgramsKernel Extensions and Device Support Programming Concepts Copyright IBM Corp. 2007, 2010v

Chapter 1. Keyboard OverviewThe operating system supports two different types of keyboards: X server and low function terminal (LFT)keyboards. Although these two keyboard maps appear to be the same, they are separate and distinct.An X server has an attached keyboard. The server uses mapping tables to manage the mapping ofkeyboard events. The mapping of an X server keyboard can be changed by using the xmodmapcommand. This command converts the keyboard so that it returns the key symbol supported by thissystem. The xmodmap command can also be used to switch keys to more convenient locations.You can use several commands and operations to control the mapping of LFT keyboards. You can specifywhich keyboard map is to be used by the LFT subsystem. You can also add new keyboard maps orchange existing maps.The operating system supports three types of keyboards: the 101-key keyboard, 102-key keyboard, and106-key keyboard. Each keyboard differs slightly in its layout and function.To view or download the PDF version of this topic, select Keyboard Technical Reference.Downloading the Adobe Reader: You need Adobe Reader installed on your system to view or print thisPDF. You can download a free copy from the Adobe website erstanding Keyboard StatesThe keyboard mapping table maps a key position to an ASCII character, extended character, function, orstring of characters. Each key on the keyboard has a numeric position code that is combined with thekeyboard state when the key position is reported.Available keyboard states are:v Basev Shiftv Controlv Alternatev Alternate Graphicsv Kana Basev Kana ShiftThe operating system supports three types of keyboards:101-key102-key106-keyThe 101-key keyboards have all available states. However, the Alt-Graphics state and the Alt state areidentical and the Kana Base state and the Kana Shift state are identical.The 102-key keyboards have all of the available states except the Kana Base state and the Kana Shiftstate.The 106-key keyboards have all of the available states except the Alt-Graphics state. Only the right Altkey is available.Depending on the keyboard, some of these keys are governed by the Caps Lock key or the Shift Lockkey. Copyright IBM Corp. 2007, 20101
On keyboards that support the Caps Lock key, Caps Lock affects only those keys whose Shift state yieldsthe uppercase character (A, B, C) of the Base state lowercase character (a, b, c) of the key. On keyboardsthat support the Shift Lock key, Shift Lock has the same effect as pressing a key while the Shift key ispressed.Each of the hardware keyboards can produce some, but not all, of these states.A software keyboard is selected at installation. A customized keyboard can be used as the system defaultafter keyboard reconfiguration. The workstation must be restarted before the customized keyboard can beused.The following keys are not redefinable by the keyboard device driver:Note: The Caps Lock key can be redefined for the 106-key keyboard using the chhwkbd command.Table 1.

For example, the a character is most oftenproduced by one key (the A key) and the A character by two keys (Shift-A key sequence). If more than onestate key is pressed when a character is keyed, (for example, Ctrl-Shift-A) only one state key affects theconversion of the character. With the Ctrl-Shift-A key sequence, the control state takes precedence overthe shift state.Some three-key sequences have special meanings for this operating system. The following keystrokecombinations start the indicated system function. The notation Padn, where n is a digit, indicates the n keyon the numeric keypad to the right of the main keyboard area.Note: Functions started with the Alt-key (or Shift-key) sequence can be selected with either the left orright Alt key (or Shift key).There are two types of key sequences that have special meaning for this operating system:v Kernel debugger key sequencesv System dump key sequencesNote: See "System Dump Facility" in AIX Version 6.1 Kernel Extensions and Device SupportProgramming Concepts before attempting to use any of the key sequences that perform systemdumps.The following key sequences issue special instructions to the operating system:2AIX Version 6.1 Keyboard Technical Reference
Ctrl-Alt-Pad4Ctrl-Alt-Pad1Ctrl-Alt-Pad2Invokes the kernel debugger.Performs a system dump to the primary device. This key sequence works only from thenative keyboard.Performs a system dump to the secondary device. This key sequence works only from thenative keyboard. Supports dumping to a logical volume or tape. Requires user interventionin releases prior to AIX 4.2.1.Understanding Nonspacing CharactersA nonspacing character sequence is a two-key sequence consisting of a diacritic mark followed by analphabetic character.Valid SequencesValid nonspacing character sequences are restricted to combinations of diacritical marks and alphabeticcharacters. Nonspacing character sequences are folded into a single character before passing thekeyboard input to the application.A special case exists when the nonspacing character sequence consists of a diacritic mark followed by aspace. In this case, the diacritic mark is displayed and sent to the application.A valid nonspacing character sequence causes a single accented character to be returned.Examples of a valid nonspacing character are:Valid Nonspacing Character Examples1st Key Pressed2nd Key PressedReturnedGraveee Grave - 1 characterGraveSpaceGrave accent - 1 characterInvalid SequencesIf the nonspacing character sequence is not valid, the LFT subsystem passes the nonspacing character tothe application followed by the second character of the sequence. Nonspacing character sequences thatare not valid include sequences that start with one of the following three parameters:v A nonspacing character followed by an alphabetic character. (The resulting diacritical mark does notexist in the system.)v A nonspacing character followed by a nonalphabetic character (numeric, control, and function key).v A nonspacing character followed by another nonspacing character.A nonspacing character sequence that is not valid returns the accent character, followed by the code forthe key pressed after the nonspacing key.Examples of an not valid nonspacing character are:Not valid Nonspacing Character Examples1st Key Pressed2nd Key PressedReturnedGravezGrave accent - 2 z charactersAcutePF1Acute accent (0xef) - 1 character PF1(0x1b5b313731xx)Chapter 1. Keyboard Overview3
An not valid nonspacing character sequence (nonspacing character - nonspacing character) causes thefirst nonspacing character of the sequence to be passed to the application. The next nonspacing characterstarts a new nonspacing character sequence.Understanding Keyboard Table InformationThe keyboard table:v Specifies the key assignments to be used on keyboards.v Provides a link to the symbol engraved on the key.v Lists the character sequences that are to be produced.Refer to the following listing for the meanings of the column headings:HeadingKey PosnShift StateAssignment ReturnedReturned StringMeaningKeyboard key position.The shift state of the Base, Shift, Ctrl, Alt, or AltGr positions.The character or control assigned to that key.Specifies the data that is returned to the program reading the keyboard.The Alt key, followed by one or more numbered keys on the numeric pad, returns a single character whenthe value is entered on the numeric pad. The value accumulates while the Alt key is held down andreturns when the key is released.Key Position Codes and Scan Codes for KeyboardsThe diagrams depict the key position codes for the 101-key keyboard, the 102-key keyboard, and the106-key keyboard, respectively.1101112 113 114 1152163044583417 1851931 3246 4760620116 117 118 1197821 2233 3448 4992335 36505110120 121 122 12311 12 13 (14) 152425 26 2737 3839 40282975 808590 95 100 10576 818691 96 101 106(107)92 97 10241 (42) 4352 53 54 55(56) 5783626479 8461101-Key Keyboard Position Codes.
