- buf
buffer into which returned string is written
- nbytes
size of buffer in bytes
- extra_rtrn

DESCRIPTION

XkbTranslateKeySym applies the transformations specified in mods to the symbol specified by sym_inout. It returns in buf the string, if any, associated with the keysym for the current locale. If the transformations in mods changes the keysym, sym_inout is updated accordingly. If the string returned is larger than nbytes, a count of bytes that does not fit into the buffer is returned in extra_rtrn. XkbTranslateKeySym returns the number of bytes it placed into buf.

RETURN VALUES

buf
Returns the string, if any, associated with the keysym for the current locale.
