Broken keystrokes in trunk

Tapple Gao
Hi. When I'm using a trunk image and press the End key, Squeak
seems to think I've pressed the Page Down key. This is a problem
for 3 of my keys:

button      acts like               keycode
end         page down               4
page up     unprintable character   11
page down   page up                 12

I got the keycode by running Sensor kbdTest. I noticed some
earlier thread was printing events like:

[keyDown '<Cmd-^Q>']

How do I see events like that? I don't really understand how the
event system works at all, actually. If someone cared to explain
where keyboard events and such come from and go, it would be
nice

I put this in Mantis as it seemed to not be there:

Indeed. Would be great to get it updated with current unix/windows information. E.g. at least WindowEventClose is delivered by all platforms nowadays (Etoys uses this).
