NAME
       xkbprint - print an XKB keyboard description

SYNOPSIS
       xkbprint [options] source [ output_file ]

DESCRIPTION
       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.
