SYNOPSIS
kbdinfo [-C DEVICE] getmode [text|graphics]

DESCRIPTION
kbdinfo is an interface to KDGETMODE, GKBMODE, GKBMETA and GKBLED
ioctls. Its primary use case is to query the status of the given CON‐
SOLE (or the currently active one, if no -C option is present) from a
shell script.
If the final value argument is not specified, kbdinfo will print the
result of the desired ioctl to the standard output. Otherwise, the
given value is compared to the actual result, and the utility will exit
with a status code of 0 for a match, 1 otherwise. No text is printed
for this style of invocation.
