Appendix B
Key Codes
Table B.1 shows the key codes used to defines keystrokes or hotkeys for several
functions. Please note that these key codes do not represent necessarily key
characters that are used on international keyboards. They name a key on a stan-
dard 104 key PC keyboard with an US English language mapping. The layout for
this keyboard is shown in Figure B.1. However, most modifier keys and other
alphanumeric keys used for hotkey purposes in application programs are on an
identical position, no matter what language mapping you are using. Some of the
keys have aliases also, means they can be named by 2 key codes (separated by
comma in the table).
