       affect mask of real modifiers whose lock state is to change

       values 1 => lock, 0 => unlock; only for modifiers selected by affect

DESCRIPTION

       XkbLatchModifiers sends a request to the server to latch the real modifiers selected by both  affect  and
       values and to unlatch the real modifiers selected by affect , but not selected by values.

       XkbLatchModifiers does not wait for a reply from the server. It returns True if the request was sent, and
       False otherwise.

       The  functions in this section that change the use of modifiers use a mask in the parameter affect. It is
       a bitwise inclusive OR of the legal modifier masks:
