Hi,

I'm using my memory here, so I might remember it wrongly...
There is a difference between a scan code, and the actual char. to
"know" the actual char, you need to know what is the language layout
that you are at.

There is an X "debug" program to know what scan code was pressed and
it's value (i can't remember it's name right now)

Ido
