One Day One GNU/Linux Command
=============================
showkey -- Examine the codes sent by the keyboard
Summary :
showkey prints to standard output either the scan codes or the keycode
or the `ascii' code of each key pressed. It can be used to check the
keyboard driver and key mappings.
Example:
$ showkey -- Show the interpreted keycode.
$ showkey -k -- Same as above (Default Option).
$ showkey -s -- Show the raw scan-codes of the keys.
$ showkey -a -- Show the Decimal/Octal/Hex values of the keys.
Note:
If Showkey is in keycode/scancode mode, then you have to wait 10
Sec to exit. In Ascii mode, Press Ctrl+D to exit.
Read: man showkey
