Options:
-i, --short-info display information about keyboard driver.
-l, -s, --long-info display above and symbols known to loadkeys.
-n, --numeric display keytable in hexadecimal notation.
-f, --full-table don't use short-hand notations, one row per keycode.
-1, --separate-lines one line per (modifier,keycode) pair.
-S, --shape={2|4|8|16}
-t, --funcs-only display only the function key strings.
-k, --keys-only display only key bindings.
-d, --compose-only display only compose key combinations.
-c, --charset=CHARSET interpret character action codes to be from the specified character set.
-C, --console=DEV the console device to be used.
-v, --verbose be more verbose.
-V, --version print version number.
-h, --help print this usage message.

| Option | Description | Source |
|---|
-i, --short-info --short-info | Prints some characteristics of the kernel's keyboard driver. | help + man |
-l, -s, --long-info -s | This option instructs dumpkeys to print a long information listing. | help + man |
-n, --numeric --numeric | This option causes dumpkeys to by-pass the conversion of action code values to symbolic notation and to print the in hexadecimal format instead. | help + man |
-f, --full-table --full-table | This makes dumpkeys skip all the short-hand heuristics (see keymaps(5)) and output the key bindings in the canonical form. | help + man |
-1, --separate-lines --separate-lines | This forces dumpkeys to write one line per (modifier,keycode) pair. | help + man |
-S, --shape 2|4|8|16 | | help |
-t, --funcs-only --funcs-only | When this option is given, dumpkeys prints only the function key string definitions. | help + man |
-k, --keys-only --keys-only | When this option is given, dumpkeys prints only the key bindings. | help + man |
-d, --compose-only --compose-only | When this option is given, dumpkeys prints only the compose key combinations. | help + man |
-c, --charset CHARSET | interpret character action codes to be from the specified character set. | help |
-C, --console DEV | the console device to be used. | help |
-v, --verbose --verbose | Turn on verbose output. | help + man |
-V, --version --version | Prints version number and exits. | help + man |
-h, --help --help | Prints the program's version number and a short usage message to the program's standard error output and exits. | help + man |
-Sshape --shape=shape | Available shapes: (in the manual page but not in --help) | man |
-ccharset --charset=charset | This instructs dumpkeys to interpret character code values according to the specified character set. (in the manual page but not in --help) | man |
-Cdev --console=dev | The affected console device can be specified using the -C (or --console ) option. (in the manual page but not in --help) | man |
