-- Note: The Char event is for delivering properly translated characters
-- after a key*press*. At least under X, a single key press might yield
-- 0, 1 or more characters after translation (see X[mb]LookupString).
-- The Key event is intended for reporting key up/down events of
-- *abstract* keys, i.e. KeySyms rather than KeyCodes in X terms.
-- To make it possible to report such events for arrow keys, function
-- keys and the like, the Char field needs to be replaced by a field of
-- a type somewhat isomorphic to KeySym, but valid under Windows too.
