Module keys

Constants

FLAG_ALT

FLAG_CMD

FLAG_CTRL

FLAG_FUNCTION

FLAG_NUMPAD

AppKit NSEventModifierFlagNumericPad / NSEventModifierFlagFunction.

FLAG_SHIFT

Functions

ansi_char

The unshifted character a US-layout ANSI keycode produces (letters, digits, punctuation).

chord

Parse “cmd+shift+return” into (keycode, flags). Single letters, digits and punctuation (cmd+,, cmd+/, cmd+[) use ANSI codes; a trailing + is the plus key (cmd++ = cmd+shift+equal).

function_char

AppKit delivers navigation and F-keys as private-use function characters with NSEventModifierFlagFunction (arrows also with NumericPad). WebKit derives KeyboardEvent.key from those characters; without them it reports “Unidentified”.

named

named_char

The printed character of a named punctuation key (comma -> ,).
