+
+## Handling events from the window system
+
+In GTK applications the events are handled automatically by toplevel
+widgets and passed on to the event controllers of appropriate widgets,
+so using [class@Gdk.Event] and its related API is rarely needed.
+
+[class@Gdk.Event] and its derived types are immutable data structures,
+created by GTK itself to represent windowing system events.

+Title: Library initialization and versioning
+
+The GDK and GTK headers annotate deprecated APIs in a way that produces
+compiler warnings if these deprecated APIs are used. The warnings
+can be turned off by defining the macro `GDK_DISABLE_DEPRECATION_WARNINGS`
+before including the `gdk.h` header.
+
+GDK and GTK also provide support for building applications against defined
+subsets of deprecated or new APIs. You can define the macro
+`GDK_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED` to specify up to what version you want to receive
+warnings about deprecated APIs; and the macro `GDK_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED` to
+specify the newest version whose API you want to use. If you attempt to use
+a function deprecated before the version of GTK specified in
+`GDK_VERSION_MIN_REQUIRED`, or a function introduced after the version of
+GTK specified in `GDK_VERSION_MAX_ALLOWED`, the compiler will warn you when
+building your code.

+Title: Key Values
+
+## Functions for manipulating keyboard codes
+
+Key values are the codes which are sent whenever a key is pressed or released.
+They are included in the data contained in a key press or release #GdkEvent.
+The complete list of key values can be found in the `gdk/gdkkeysyms.h` header
+file.
+
+Key values are regularly updated from the upstream X.org X11 implementation,
+so new values are added regularly. They will be prefixed with GDK_KEY_ rather
+than XF86XK_ or XK_ (for older symbols).
+
+Key values can be converted into a string representation using
+gdk_keyval_name(). The reverse function, converting a string to a key value,
+is provided by gdk_keyval_from_name().
+
+The case of key values can be determined using gdk_keyval_is_upper() and
+gdk_keyval_is_lower(). Key values can be converted to upper or lower case
+using gdk_keyval_to_upper() and gdk_keyval_to_lower().
+
+When it makes sense, key values can be converted to and from
+Unicode characters with gdk_keyval_to_unicode() and gdk_unicode_to_keyval().
+
+## Key groups
+
+At the lowest level, physical keys on the keyboard are represented by
+numeric keycodes, and GDK knows how to translate these keycodes into
+key values according to the configured keyboard layout and the current
+state of the keyboard. In the GDK api, the mapping from keycodes to key
+values is available via [`method@Gdk.Display.map_keycode`], and the reverse
+mapping is available via [`method@Gdk.Display.map_keyval`]. The results of
+these functions are returned in [struct@Gdk.KeymapKey] structures.
+
+You can think of a [struct@Gdk.KeymapKey] as a representation of a symbol
+printed on a physical keyboard key. That is, it contains three pieces of
+information:
+
+  1. first, it contains the hardware keycode; this is an identifying number
+    for a physical key
+  1. second, it contains the “level” of the key. The level indicates which
+    symbol on the key will be used, in a vertical direction. So on a standard
+    US keyboard, the key with the number “1“ on it also has the exclamation
+    point (”!”) character on it. The level indicates whether to use the “1”
+    or the “!” symbol. The letter keys are considered to have a lowercase
+    letter at level 0, and an uppercase letter at level 1, though normally
+    only the uppercase letter is printed on the key
+  1. third, the #GdkKeymapKey contains a group; groups are not used on
+     standard US keyboards, but are used in many other countries. On a
+     keyboard with groups, there can be 3 or 4 symbols printed on a single
+     key. The group indicates movement in a horizontal direction. Usually
+     groups are used for two different languages. In group 0, a key might
+     have two English characters, and in group 1 it might have two Hebrew
+     characters. The Hebrew characters will be printed on the key next to
+     the English characters.
+
+When GDK creates a key event in order to deliver a key press or release,
+it first converts the current keyboard state into an effective group and
+level. This is done via a set of rules that varies widely according to
+type of keyboard and user configuration. The input to this translation
+consists of the hardware keycode pressed, the active modifiers, and the
+active group. It then applies the appropriate rules, and returns the
+group/level to be used to index the keymap, along with the modifiers
+which did not affect the group and level. i.e. it returns “unconsumed
+modifiers.” The keyboard group may differ from the effective group used
+for lookups because some keys don't have multiple groups - e.g. the
+<kbd>Enter</kbd> key is always in group 0 regardless of keyboard state.
+
+The results of the translation, including the keyval, are all included
+in the key event and can be obtained via [class@Gdk.KeyEvent] getters.
+
+### Consumed modifiers
+
+The `consumed_modifiers` in a key event are modifiers that should be masked
+out from @state when comparing this key press to a hot key. For instance,
+on a US keyboard, the `plus` symbol is shifted, so when comparing a key
+press to a `<Control>plus` accelerator `<Shift>` should be masked out.
+
+```c
+// We want to ignore irrelevant modifiers like ScrollLock
+#define ALL_ACCELS_MASK (GDK_CONTROL_MASK | GDK_SHIFT_MASK | GDK_ALT_MASK)
+state = gdk_event_get_modifier_state (event);
+gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state (keymap,
+                                     gdk_key_event_get_keycode (event),
+                                     state,
+                                     gdk_key_event_get_group (event),
+                                     &keyval, NULL, NULL, &consumed);
+if (keyval == GDK_PLUS &&
+    (state & ~consumed & ALL_ACCELS_MASK) == GDK_CONTROL_MASK)
+  // Control was pressed
+```
+
+An older interpretation of `consumed_modifiers` was that it contained
+all modifiers that might affect the translation of the key;
+this allowed accelerators to be stored with irrelevant consumed
+modifiers, by doing:
+
+```c
+// XXX Don’t do this XXX
+if (keyval == accel_keyval &&
+    (state & ~consumed & ALL_ACCELS_MASK) == (accel_mods & ~consumed))
+  // Accelerator was pressed
+```
+
+However, this did not work if multi-modifier combinations were
+used in the keymap, since, for instance, `<Control>` would be
+masked out even if only `<Control><Alt>` was used in
+the keymap. To support this usage as well as well as possible, all single
+modifier combinations that could affect the key for any combination
+of modifiers will be returned in `consumed_modifiers`; multi-modifier
+combinations are returned only when actually found in `state`. When
+you store accelerators, you should always store them with consumed
+modifiers removed. Store `<Control>plus`, not `<Control><Shift>plus`.

+Title: macOS Interaction
+
+## macOS backend-specific functions

+application.
+
+## Checking for the macOS backend
+
+GDK can be built with support for multiple backends, which means you will
+need to perform both compile time *and* run time checks if you wish to call
+backend-specific API; for instance, the code sample below will guard the
+calls to different backends, and error out on unsupported windowing systems:
+
+```c
+#ifdef GDK_WINDOWING_MACOS
+#include <gdk/macos/gdkmacos.h>
+#endif
+#ifdef GDK_WINDOWING_WAYLAND
+#include <gdk/wayland/gdkwayland.h>

+#ifdef GDK_WINDOWING_X11

+
+#ifdef GDK_WINDOWING_MACOS

+  g_error ("Unsupported GDK backend");
+```
+
+The compile time check is performed by using the `GDK_WINDOWING_*`
+pre-processor symbols; there is one defined for each windowing system
+backend built into GDK. For Wayland, the symbol is `GDK_WINDOWING_MACOS`.
+
+The run time check is performed by looking at the type of the
+[class@Gdk.Display] object. For Wayland, the display objects will be of type
+`GdkMacosDisplay`.

+ Title: Pango Interaction
+
+Pango is the text layout system used by GDK and GTK. The functions
+and types in this section are used to obtain clip regions for
+`PangoLayout`s, and to get `PangoContext`s that can be used with
+GDK.
+
+## Using Pango in GDK
+
+Creating a `PangoLayout` object is the first step in rendering text,
+and requires getting a handle to a `PangoContext`. For GTK programs,
+you’ll usually want to use `gtk_widget_get_pango_context()`, or
+`gtk_widget_create_pango_layout()`. Once you have a `PangoLayout`,
+you can set the text and attributes of it with Pango functions like
+`pango_layout_set_text()` and get its size with `pango_layout_get_size()`.
+
+*Note*: Pango uses a fixed point system internally, so converting
+between Pango units and pixels using `PANGO_SCALE` or the `PANGO_PIXELS()`
+macro.
+
+Rendering a Pango layout is done most simply with `pango_cairo_show_layout()`;
+you can also draw pieces of the layout with `pango_cairo_show_layout_line()`.
+
+### Draw transformed text with Pango and cairo
+
+```c
+#define RADIUS 100
+#define N_WORDS 10
+#define FONT "Sans Bold 18"
+
+PangoContext *context;
+PangoLayout *layout;
+PangoFontDescription *desc;
+
+double radius;
+int width, height;
+int i;
+
+// Set up a transformation matrix so that the user space coordinates for
+// where we are drawing are [-RADIUS, RADIUS], [-RADIUS, RADIUS]
+// We first center, then change the scale
+
+width = gdk_surface_get_width (surface);
+height = gdk_surface_get_height (surface);
+radius = MIN (width, height) / 2.;
+
+cairo_translate (cr,
+                 radius + (width - 2 * radius) / 2,
+                 radius + (height - 2 * radius) / 2);
+                 cairo_scale (cr, radius / RADIUS, radius / RADIUS);
+
+// Create a PangoLayout, set the font and text
+context = gdk_pango_context_get_for_display (display);
+layout = pango_layout_new (context);
+pango_layout_set_text (layout, "Text", -1);
+desc = pango_font_description_from_string (FONT);
+pango_layout_set_font_description (layout, desc);
+pango_font_description_free (desc);
+
+// Draw the layout N_WORDS times in a circle
+for (i = 0; i < N_WORDS; i++)
+  {
+    double red, green, blue;
+    double angle = 2 * G_PI * i / n_words;
+
+    cairo_save (cr);
+
+    // Gradient from red at angle == 60 to blue at angle == 300
+    red = (1 + cos (angle - 60)) / 2;
+    green = 0;
+    blue = 1 - red;
+
+    cairo_set_source_rgb (cr, red, green, blue);
+    cairo_rotate (cr, angle);
+
+    // Inform Pango to re-layout the text with the new transformation matrix
+    pango_cairo_update_layout (cr, layout);
+
+    pango_layout_get_size (layout, &width, &height);
+
+    cairo_move_to (cr, - width / 2 / PANGO_SCALE, - DEFAULT_TEXT_RADIUS);
+    pango_cairo_show_layout (cr, layout);
+
+    cairo_restore (cr);
+  }
+
+g_object_unref (layout);
+g_object_unref (context);
+```
+
+The example code above will yield the following result:

- * SECTION:keys
- * @Short_description: Functions for manipulating keyboard codes
- * @Title: Key Values
- *
- * Key values are the codes which are sent whenever a key is pressed or released.
- * They are included in the data contained in a key press or release #GdkEvent.
- * The complete list of key values can be found in the `gdk/gdkkeysyms.h` header
- * file.
- *
- * Key values are regularly updated from the upstream X.org X11 implementation,
- * so new values are added regularly. They will be prefixed with GDK_KEY_ rather
- * than XF86XK_ or XK_ (for older symbols).
- *
- * Key values can be converted into a string representation using
- * gdk_keyval_name(). The reverse function, converting a string to a key value,
- * is provided by gdk_keyval_from_name().
- *
- * The case of key values can be determined using gdk_keyval_is_upper() and
- * gdk_keyval_is_lower(). Key values can be converted to upper or lower case
- * using gdk_keyval_to_upper() and gdk_keyval_to_lower().
- *
- * When it makes sense, key values can be converted to and from
- * Unicode characters with gdk_keyval_to_unicode() and gdk_unicode_to_keyval().
- *
- * # Groups # {#key-group-explanation}
- *
- * At the lowest level, physical keys on the keyboard are represented by
- * numeric keycodes, and GDK knows how to translate these keycodes into
- * key values according to the configured keyboard layout and the current
- * state of the keyboard. In the GDK api, the mapping from keycodes to key
- * values is available via gdk_display_map_keycode(), and the reverse mapping
- * is available via gdk_display_map_keyval(). The results of these functions
- * are returned in #GdkKeymapKey structs.
- *
- * You can think of a #GdkKeymapKey as a representation of a symbol printed on
- * a physical keyboard key. That is, it contains three pieces of information.
- * First, it contains the hardware keycode; this is an identifying number for
- * a physical key. Second, it contains the “level” of the key. The level indicates
- * which symbol on the key will be used, in a vertical direction. So on a standard
- * US keyboard, the key with the number “1“ on it also has the exclamation point
- * (”!”) character on it. The level indicates whether to use the “1” or the “!”
- * symbol. The letter keys are considered to have a lowercase letter at level 0,
- * and an uppercase letter at level 1, though normally only the uppercase letter
- * is printed on the key. Third, the #GdkKeymapKey contains a group; groups are
- * not used on standard US keyboards, but are used in many other countries. On a
- * keyboard with groups, there can be 3 or 4 symbols printed on a single key.
- * The group indicates movement in a horizontal direction. Usually groups are
- * used for two different languages. In group 0, a key might have two English
- * characters, and in group 1 it might have two Hebrew characters. The Hebrew
- * characters will be printed on the key next to the English characters.
- *
- * When GDK creates a key event in order to deliver a key press or release,
- * it first converts the current keyboard state into an effective group and
- * level. This is done via a set of rules that varies widely according to
- * type of keyboard and user configuration. The input to this translation
- * consists of the hardware keycode pressed, the active modifiers, and the
- * active group. It then applies the appropriate rules, and returns the
- * group/level to be used to index the keymap, along with the modifiers
- * which did not affect the group and level. i.e. it returns “unconsumed
- * modifiers.” The keyboard group may differ from the effective group used
- * for lookups because some keys don't have multiple groups - e.g. the Enter
- * key is always in group 0 regardless of keyboard state.
- *
- * The results of the translation, including the keyval, are all included
- * in the key event and can be obtained via #GdkEvent getters.
- *
- * # Consumed modifiers
- *
- * The @consumed_modifiers in a key event are modifiers that should be masked
- * out from @state when comparing this key press to a hot key. For instance,
- * on a US keyboard, the `plus` symbol is shifted, so when comparing a key
- * press to a `<Control>plus` accelerator `<Shift>` should be masked out.
- *
- * |[<!-- language="C" -->
- * // We want to ignore irrelevant modifiers like ScrollLock
- * #define ALL_ACCELS_MASK (GDK_CONTROL_MASK | GDK_SHIFT_MASK | GDK_ALT_MASK)
- * state = gdk_event_get_modifier_state (event);
- * gdk_keymap_translate_keyboard_state (keymap,
- *                                      gdk_key_event_get_keycode (event),
- *                                      state,
- *                                      gdk_key_event_get_group (event),
- *                                      &keyval, NULL, NULL, &consumed);
- * if (keyval == GDK_PLUS &&
- *     (state & ~consumed & ALL_ACCELS_MASK) == GDK_CONTROL_MASK)
- *   // Control was pressed
- * ]|
- *
- * An older interpretation @consumed_modifiers was that it contained
- * all modifiers that might affect the translation of the key;
- * this allowed accelerators to be stored with irrelevant consumed
- * modifiers, by doing:
- * |[<!-- language="C" -->
- * // XXX Don’t do this XXX
- * if (keyval == accel_keyval &&
- *     (state & ~consumed & ALL_ACCELS_MASK) == (accel_mods & ~consumed))
- *   // Accelerator was pressed
- * ]|
- *
- * However, this did not work if multi-modifier combinations were
- * used in the keymap, since, for instance, `<Control>` would be
- * masked out even if only `<Control><Alt>` was used in the keymap.
- * To support this usage as well as well as possible, all single
- * modifier combinations that could affect the key for any combination
- * of modifiers will be returned in @consumed_modifiers; multi-modifier
- * combinations are returned only when actually found in @state. When
- * you store accelerators, you should always store them with consumed
- * modifiers removed. Store `<Control>plus`, not `<Control><Shift>plus`.

- * @Short_description: Using Pango in GDK
- * @Title: Pango Interaction
- *
- * Pango is the text layout system used by GDK and GTK. The functions
- * and types in this section are used to obtain clip regions for
- * #PangoLayouts, and to get #PangoContexts that can be used with
- * GDK.
- *
- * Creating a #PangoLayout object is the first step in rendering text,
- * and requires getting a handle to a #PangoContext. For GTK programs,
- * you’ll usually want to use gtk_widget_get_pango_context(), or
- * gtk_widget_create_pango_layout(). Once you have a #PangoLayout,
- * you can set the text and attributes of it with Pango functions like
- * pango_layout_set_text() and get its size with pango_layout_get_size().
- * (Note that Pango uses a fixed point system internally, so converting
- * between Pango units and pixels using [PANGO_SCALE][PANGO-SCALE-CAPS]
- * or the PANGO_PIXELS() macro.)
- *
- * Rendering a Pango layout is done most simply with pango_cairo_show_layout();
- * you can also draw pieces of the layout with pango_cairo_show_layout_line().
