Actions/locks xkb extension v3 #527

wants to merge 6 commits into from

Commits on Oct 11, 2024

  1. DROP ME: explicit formats 

    keymap: Add xkb_keymap_new_from_names2

Currently `xkb_keymap_new_from_names` does not allow to specify the
keymap format, so provide a new function `xkb_keymap_new_from_names2`.

keymap: Use explicit format in keymap_get_as_string

actions: Use explicit format for parsing actions

test: Use explicit format version in test_compile_rules

tools: Add --format* options

Allow to choose the exact keymap formats for parsing and serializing.
This prepares for the addition of the new minor version XKB 1.1.

  4. keymap: Add option "lockOnRelease" for LockGroup action 

    This is an extension to XKB, to allow to use e.g. the combination
`Control + Shift` *alone* to switch layouts, while keeping the use of
`Control + Shift + some other key` (typically for keyboard shortcuts).

This is really useful for people coming from other platform, such as
Windows.

  5. keymap: Add option "unlockOnPress" for LockMods action 

    This is an extensions to XKB. It intends to allow to deactivate CapsLock on press
rather than on release, as in other platforms such as Windows.
