I have to study xcffib documentation as it appears to be a drop-in replacement for xcb rather than xlib. It does not provide
alloc_named_color
andstring_to_keysym
functions (or I can not find it).OK. I will do it

If there are no easy equivalents, then I guess it may stay with python3-xlib, but check first.

As Geoffrey comments in the Stackoverflow, his suggested code does not show keysym names (only syms & values). And suggests
XKeysymToString
(which I am using it's python-xlib equivalent here).For the keyboard, It might be possible to revert to python3-xkbcommon which is Python bindings for libxkbcommon using cffi. And what is used nowadays with Wayland as well.
For the color, I have to look for alternatives

@marmarek there are positive and negative things about
python3-xkbcommon
. I tested it and it works well. While it is the new modern approach and what is currently used with both X & Wayland, It is only available for Fedora 38 onward. Not Fedora 37. So it is time to decide if this patch is going to come only to Qubes R4.3 or R4.2 as well.There was a problem hiding this comment.

For color, using
xcffib.xproto.xprotoExtension().AllocNamedColor()
works. But not as good as the Xlib'salloc_named_color
. Since Xlib supports#RGB
,#RRGGBB
,rgb:RRRRGGGGBBBB
, etc (as well as the named colors).There was a problem hiding this comment.

It also isn't available in Debian... So, I guess python3-xlib it is.

During the early stages of writing this PR, I used higher level GTK 4.0 for Keysym name validation (reference). It is still possible. And the ugly approach of
try import xcffib except import xlib
is also possible. Still your decision.
