In X10, it was possible for the user to specify an alternate keymap file in
his home directory. The file was searched for and loaded the first time
XLookupMapping() or XRebindCode() were called; these routines invoked
Initialize(), which did the actual search and load operation.
Will there be the equivalent capability in X11? Looking through the library
code leads me to believe there will be, and yet the code is not implemented
nor is the feature documented (as far as I can tell). Looking through
XKeyBind.c, I encountered the procedure InitTranslationList(), which according
to its comment, appeared to be the place where this feature would be
implemented. However, the procedure is not implemented. Can you give me some
insight into what the keymap file name will be, and where it will be searched
for?
