XUngrabKey()							  XUngrabKey()

Name
  XUngrabKey – release a key from a passive grab.

Synopsis
  XUngrabKey(display, keycode, modifiers, grab_window)
	Display *display;
	int keycode;
	unsigned int modifiers;
	Window grab_window;

Arguments
  display   Specifies	a  connection  to  an  X  server;  returned  from
	    XOpenDisplay().

  keycode   Specifies the keycode.  This keycode maps to the specific key
	    you want to ungrab.	 Pass either a keycode or AnyKey.

  modifiers Specifies  a  set of keymasks. This is a bitwise OR of one or
	    more of the following symbols:  ShiftMask, LockMask, Control‐
	    Mask,  Mod1Mask,  Mod2Mask,	 Mod3Mask, Mod4Mask, Mod5Mask, or
	    AnyModifier.  AnyModifier is equivalent to issuing the ungrab
	    key request for all possible modifier combinations (including
	    no modifiers).

  grab_window
	    Specifies the ID of the window for which you want  to  ungrab
	    the specified keys.

Description
  XUngrabKey()	cancels	 the  passive  grab on the key combination on the
  specified window if it was grabbed by this client.  A modifiers of Any‐
  Modifier is equivalent to issuing the request for all possible modifier
  combinations (including the combination of no modifiers).  A keycode of
  AnyKey  is  equivalent to issuing the request for all possible nonmodi‐
  fier key codes.  This call has no effect on an active grab.
