A. Key Codes
The table below shows the key codes used to denes 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 standard 104 key PC keyboard with an US English language mapping. The layout for
this keyboard is shown in the image below. However, most modier 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).
