Package: xbase-clients
Version: 4.3.0.dfsg.1-13
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/X11R6/bin/xmodmap

One notes the man page doesn't explicitly say
$ xmodmap
with no options will print the present state.
It just says "The xmodmap program is used to edit and display"...

But what was mainly bugging me was xmodmap acts like all is hunky dory
if one forgets the "-" meaning stdin.

$ echo ANYBODY HOME?|xmodmap|sum; echo $?
33830     1
0
$ xmodmap|sum; echo $?
33830     1
0

I wish it would print an error.

Hi! I'm closing this bug, since it was tagged "wontfix" for some
years, without answer. If you have new reasons to point out this
problem, please feel free to re-open it.
