WIP: Is mine now (^3^)
Seriously though, I've got some issues with how this thing is designed, as well as with its formatting, and when you add the fact that the original author wants to merge this thing into his bigger library that also handles terminal output, which I'll kindly leave to ncurses, it kind of makes sense for me to do this. Manpages have been removed as they are going to become obsolete and they're rather difficult to maintain. If anything, there will be Doxygen-generated documentation. The plan is to throw away any direct UTF-8 support and support all uni- and multibyte character encodings. However some unrelated refactoring is about to come first.

-.TH TERMKEY_LOOKUP_KEYNAME 3
-.SH NAME
-termkey_lookup_keyname \- look up a symbolic key value for a string name
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <termkey.h>
-.sp
-.BI "char *termkey_lookup_keyname(TermKey *" tk ", const char *" keyname ",
-.BI " TermKeySym *" sym ");
-.fi
-.sp
-Link with \fI-ltermkey\fP.
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-\fBtermkey_lookup_keyname\fP() looks up the symbolic key value represented by the given string name. This is a case-sensitive comparison. The symbolic value is written to the variable addressed by \fIsym\fP. This function is a more general form of \fBtermkey_keyname2sym\fP(3) because it can recognise a symbolic key name within a longer string, returning a pointer to the remainder of the input after the key name.
-.PP
-Because the key names are stored in an array indexed by the symbol number, this function has to perform a linear search of the names. Use of this function should be restricted to converting key names into symbolic values during a program's initialisation, so that efficient comparisons can be done while it is running.
-.SH "RETURN VALUE"
-\fBtermkey_lookup_keyname\fP() returns a pointer to the first character after a recognised name, or \fBNULL\fP if the string does not begin with the name of a recognised symbolic key.
