Well those values are not for Arabic letters, they may represent the shape of
the complex letter .. Now to make the question more specific (I am trying to
learn Xfree terms for keyboard :-) ) :
I hope I understand correct, Now keysym are the client side codes, while the
keycodes are server side .. I need the keysym to return not one character,
but 2 characters .. as I read in the man x(7) :
"The X keyboard model is broken into two layers: server-
specific codes (called keycodes) which represent the phys
ical keys, and server-independent symbols (called keysyms)
which represent the letters or words that appear on the
keys."
So I understand from that that a keysym could represent more than one letter,
that is what I want .. isn't it ?
