At best you might be able to determine what keystrokes are used (maybe

generate those characters.
I think for these key identifier strings we shouldn’t be worrying about
what character input is then generated and passed to the application,
since that’s the job of TextEvent.
I guess I'm not following this.
So you're just looking at the scan codes then of the keys being pressed?
if i press the q/Q key are you looking at a particular physical key key
on the keyboard? i.e. ultimately at the scan codes or virtual key codes?
or are you looking at a higher level?
i.e. the q/Q key on a QWERTY keyboard is a different physical key than
the q|Q key on a AZERTY keyboard.
So are you using a positional approach using the virtual keys or scan
codes of the physical keyboard, or are you interpreting the keystroke at
a higher level so that key interpretation is mnemonic, i.e. does it
matter which key is typed? or is it the q-key independent of the
physical position of the q|Q key on the keyboard?
