<H2>DESCRIPTION</H2>

The
<B>xmbind</B>

application is a X Window System client that configures
the virtual key bindings of 
<B>LessTif</B>

applications. As every
<B>LessTif</B>

application loads either a set of predefinied virtual key
bindings or, if applicable, looks up the bindings in some well known places
(see
<B><A HREF="VirtualBindings.html">VirtualBindings</A></B>(5x)

) you need to use
<B>xmbind</B>

only when explicitly loading binding files or 
when you want to reset the bindings to their initial values (after you have
messed them up).

If a file is specified, its contents are used as the virtual key bindings.
If no file name is given, or the file can't be found,
<B>xmbind</B>

looks for the file
<B>.motifbind</B>

in the user's home directory. If this all fails,
<B>xmbind</B>

loads the default virtual key bindings, as described
in
<B><A HREF="VirtualBindings.html">VirtualBindings</A></B>(5x)

<BR>&nbsp;.

The return code is zero, if the
<B>xmbind</B>

client succeeds, otherwise it is non-zero.

<H2>FILE FORMAT</H2>

For a description of the
<B><A HREF="VirtualBindings.html">VirtualBindings</A></B>(5x)

format of binding files, refer to the man page of the
<B><A HREF="VirtualBindings.html">VirtualBindings</A></B>(5x)

<BR>&nbsp;.
<A NAME="lbAG">&nbsp;</A>
<H2>BUGS</H2>

The
<B>xmbind</B>

client does not feature more bugs than any other ISO 9000
quality software - but it is much cheaper.
Thus, the
<I>specific feature rate</I>

(that is bugs per currency unit) is very pleasant.
