Description-en: library interface to the XKB compiler - development files
xkbcommon is a library to handle keyboard descriptions, including loading them
from disk, parsing them and handling their state. It's mainly meant for client
toolkits, window systems, and other system applications; currently that
includes Wayland, kmscon, GTK+, Clutter, and more.
