Yes, thanks, sort of. But I think that Qt handles the shift, ctrl and alt
keys separately. Notice that there is only one entry for "A" in that list.
No lower case "a" is in that list. Apparently when Qt gets the "A" event it
has to check for the shift key to determine if it is a lower case "a" or
upper case "A". Similarly for the ctrl and the alt keys. J seems to have a
separate event for say - "a" by itself and "a" with shift, ctrl or alt
pressed. The shift is handled internally. At least in user defined forms.
Several keys like "ctrl+c" belong to Windows. Some like "ctrl+l" J handles.
But others like "shift_ctrl+>" shown in the J Playground for lab advance.
Can it be used in JQt? Tried it. It didn't work. But it didn't seem to work
in the Playground either. And which ">" symbol is the Playground referring
to? There is the greater than symbol and the move one character to the
right key. Tried both in the Playground. On top of that I can
interrogate the ctrl, alt and shift keys pressed with a keystroke including
key up and key down, but only in user forms. Not in the term form.
I suspect that I can only define function keys for the term form in
"userkeys.cfg" and no character keys. Is that the case?
