Variables

charsPossible dchar[] charsPossible;: A view into the upcoming buffer holding coming character events that are sent if and only if neither the alt or super modifier keys are pressed (check this with !(modifierState & (ModifierState.window | ModifierState.alt)) to predict if char events are actually coming..
hardwareCode ubyte hardwareCode;: A platform and hardware specific code for the key
key Key key;: see table below. Always use the symbolic names, even for ASCII characters, since the actual numbers vary across platforms. See Key
modifierState uint modifierState;: see enum ModifierState. They are bitwise combined together.
pressed bool pressed;: true if the key was just pressed, false if it was just released. note: released events aren't always sent...
