I RTFM once or twice, too. It seems like this sort of thing should
be easier to grok. The only program I know of that plays with
the keyboard that you are likely to see source to is the X server.
The is also a utility program that sets the keyboard mode. I believe
there are four, ascii, and three other event encodings.
