    .SH DESCRIPTION
    The \fIXGrabDeviceKey\fP request establishes a passive grab.
    In the future,
    the device is actively grabbed (as for
    \fIXGrabDevice\fP,
    the last-device-grab time is set to the time at which the Key was pressed
    (as transmitted in the
    \fIDeviceKeyPress\fP
    event), and the
    \fIDeviceKeyPress\fP
    event is reported if all of the following conditions are true:
    .IP \(bu 5
    The device is not grabbed, and the specified key is logically pressed
    when the specified modifier keys are logically down,
    and no other keys or modifier keys are logically down.
    .IP \(bu 5
    The grab_window is an ancestor (or is) the focus window OR the grab
    window is a descendant of the focus window and contains the device.
    .IP \(bu 5
    The confine_to window (if any) is viewable.
    .IP \(bu 5
    A passive grab on the same key/modifier combination does not exist
    on any ancestor of grab_window.
    .LP
    The interpretation of the remaining arguments is as for
    \fIXGrabDevice\fP .
    The active grab is terminated automatically when the logical state of the
    device has the specified key released.
    .LP
    Note that the logical state of a device (as seen by means of the X protocol )
    may lag the physical state if device event processing is frozen.
    .LP
    If the key is not \fIAnyKey\fP, it must be in the range specified by
    min_keycode and max_keycode as returned by the \fIXListInputDevices\fP
    request.  Otherwise, a \fIBadValue\fP error results.
    .LP
    This request overrides all previous grabs by the same client on the same
    Key/modifier combinations on the same window.
    A modifier of 
    \fIAnyModifier\fP 
    is equivalent to issuing the grab request for all
    possible modifier combinations (including the combination of no modifiers).  
    It is not required that all modifiers specified have currently assigned 
    KeyCodes.
    A key of 
    \fIAnyKey\fP 
    is equivalent to
    issuing the request for all possible keys.
    Otherwise, it is not required that the specified key currently be assigned
    to a physical Key.
    .LP
    If a modifier_device of NULL is specified, the X keyboard will be used as
    the modifier_device.
    .LP
    If some other client has already issued a 
    \fIXGrabDeviceKey\fP
    with the same Key/modifier combination on the same window, a
    \fIBadAccess\fP 
    error results.
    When using 
    \fIAnyModifier\fP 
    or 
    \fIAnyKey\fP , 
    the request fails completely,
    and a
    \fIBadAccess\fP
    error results (no grabs are
    established) if there is a conflicting grab for any combination.
    \fIXGrabDeviceKey\fP
    has no effect on an active grab.
    .LP
    \fIXGrabDeviceKey\fP
    can generate
    \fIBadAccess\fP,
    \fIBadClass\fP,
    \fIBadDevice\fP,
    \fIBadMatch\fP,
    \fIBadValue\fP,
    and
    \fIBadWindow\fP 
    errors.  It returns \fISuccess\fP on successful completion of the request.
    .P 
    The \fIXUngrabDeviceKey\fP
    request releases the passive grab for a key/modifier combination on the 
    specified window if it was grabbed by this client.
    A modifier of \fIAnyModifier\fP is
    equivalent to issuing 
    the ungrab request for all possible modifier combinations, including 
    the combination of no modifiers.
    A Key of \fIAnyKey\fP 
    is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible Keys.
    \fIXUngrabDeviceKey\fP has no effect on an active grab.
    .LP
    If a modifier_device of NULL is specified, the X keyboard will be used as the
    modifier_device.
    .LP
    \fIXUngrabDeviceKey\fP can generate \fIBadDevice\fP, \fIBadMatch\fP,
    \fIBadValue\fP and \fIBadWindow\fP errors.
    .SH DIAGNOSTICS
    .TP 12
    \fIBadDevice\fP
    An invalid device was specified.  The specified device does not exist or has 
    not been opened by this client via \fIXOpenInputDevice\fP.  This error may
    also occur if the specified device is the X keyboard or X pointer device.
    .TP 12
    \fIBadMatch\fP
    This error may occur if an \fIXGrabDeviceKey\fP request was made
    specifying a device that has no keys, or a modifier device that has no
    keys.
    .TP 12
    \fIBadValue\fP
    Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
    Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined
    by the argument's type is accepted.  Any argument defined as a set of
    alternatives can generate this error.
    .TP 12
    \fIBadWindow\fP
    A value for a Window argument does not name a defined Window.
