Depending on what you need, just the event passed to the XtActionProc
should be enough, not sure about modifiers state, but should be ok for
the translation table sample you provided. Is the function KeyEventEditor
being properly defined? XtActionProc is defined as:
typedef void (*XtActionProc)(
#if NeedFunctionPrototypes
Widget /* widget */,
XEvent* /* event */,
String* /* params */,
Cardinal* /* num_params */
#endif
);
so the XEvent pointer is available in KeyEventEditor.
