1205In addition, you can define a range of keysyms in one shot by loading
1206the C<keysym-list> perl extension and providing a I<string> with pattern
1207B<list/PREFIX/MIDDLE/SUFFIX>, where the delimiter `/' should be a
1208character not used by the strings.
1209
1210Its usage can be demonstrated by an example:
