NAME

evdump – dump input and window events

SYNOPSIS

evdump

DESCRIPTION

Evdump creates a new window, grabs the input and prints incoming keyboard, mouse and window events in a human-readable form.

It can be useful in a situation where a keyboard does not seem to produce any rune when a certain key is pressed. The event printed out, in this case, provides enough information to set a required rune via /dev/kbmap.
