.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
.LP
\fBloadkeys\fR reads the file specified by \fIfilename\fR, and modifies the keyboard streams module's translation tables. If no file is specified, \fBloadkeys\fR loads the file: \fB/usr/share/lib/keytables/type_\fR\fItt\fR\fB/layout_\fR\fIdd,\fR where \fItt\fR is the value returned by the \fBKIOCTYPE\fR \fBioctl\fR, and \fBdd\fR is the value returned by the \fBKIOCLAYOUT\fR \fBioctl\fR (see  \fBkb\fR(7M)).   These keytable files specify only the entries that change between the specified layout and the default layout for the particular keyboard type. On self-identifying keyboards, the value returned by the  \fBKIOCLAYOUT\fR \fBioctl\fR is set from the \fBDIP\fR switches.
.sp
.LP
\fBdumpkeys\fR writes the current contents of the keyboard streams module's translation tables, in the format specified by \fBkeytables\fR(4), to the standard output.
