Hi Thomas,

And you should finally have a fixed series with one patch less to drag along.

"Add-defines-for-some-of-the-ST-scancode-values" patch could also be applied to keymap.c as-is.

What do you think, should I commit it?


Could you tell if enhanced keymap patch series should be abandoned ?

IMHO yes, I think we should rather try to follow up with the SDL_EVENT_TEXT_INPUT idea if we really want to support more character mappings.

Maybe after somebody implements such SDL_EVENT_TEXT_INPUT support, *and* it actually works OK, both for text input and _and_ games.

(I don't think modifier support can be properly solved with it.)

Until then, I think it makes sense to keep/update the enhanced keymap series.

Please see Yves' documentation in FR keymap file on what it can do!
