<para>
|
|
Key values are the codes which are sent whenever a key is pressed or released.
|
|
They appear in the <structfield>keyval</structfield> field of the
|
|
#GdkEventKey structure, which is passed to signal handlers for the
|
|
"key-press-event" and "key-release-event" signals.
|
|
The complete list of key values can be found in the <gdk/gdkkeysyms.h>
|
|
header file.
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
Key values can be converted into a string representation using
|
|
gdk_keyval_name(). The reverse function, converting a string to a key value,
|
|
is provided by gdk_keyval_from_name().
|
|
</para>
|
|
<para>
|
|
The case of key values can be determined using gdk_keyval_is_upper() and
|
|
gdk_keyval_is_lower(). Key values can be converted to upper or lower case
|
|
using gdk_keyval_to_upper() and gdk_keyval_to_lower().

<!-- ##### FUNCTION gdk_keyval_name ##### -->
|
|
<para>
|
|
Converts a key value into a symbolic name.
|
|
The names are the same as those in the <gdk/gdkkeysyms.h> header file
|
|
but without the leading "GDK_".

@keyval: a key value.
