xkbprint - print an XKB keyboard description
xkbprint [options] source [ output_file ]
The xkbprint command generates a printable or encapsulated
PostScript description of the XKB keyboard description specified by
source. The source can be any compiled keymap (.xkm) file that
includes a geometry description or an X display specification. If an
output_file is specified, xkbprint writes to it. If no output file is
specified, xkbprint creates replaces the extension of the source file with
.ps or .eps depending on the requested format. If the source
is a non-local X display (e.g.:0), xkbprint appends the appropriate prefix
to the display specification, replacing the colon with a dash. For a local
display, xkprint uses server-n where n is the number of the
display.
