NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     alpq - query the alp STREAMS module

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     alpq

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The alpq command takes no arguments or options.  It presents, on its
     standard output, a	list of	the functions currently	registered with	the
     alp STREAMS module.  Information on building and using these functions is
     contained in the manual entry alp(7).

     The output	list contains such entries as

	      1	 Ucase	  (Upper to lower case converter)


     The first field is	a sequence number.  The	second field is	the function's
     name (by which it may be accessed), and the third field is	the function's
     explanation string, enclosed in parentheses.

SEE ALSO    [Toc]    [Back]

     kbdcomp(1M), kbdload(1M), alp(7), kbd(7).

NOTES    [Toc]    [Back]

     The alpq command works by pushing the alp STREAMS module, querying	it via
     ioctl(2), and then	popping	it immediately;	its standard input (normally
     the user's	TTY) must thus be a stream.
