Thanks for all you comments! They helped a lot. The meaning for some keycodes is still missing, though:
* KEY_ARCHIVE, KEY_FILE, KEY_DIRECTORY - What's the difference here? * KEY_DIGITS * KEY_ISO - somehow related to KEY_KATAKANAHIRAGANA ??? (mapped to same scancode in rawmode emulation) * KEY_MODE * KEY_QUESTION - what's the difference to KEY_INFO and KEY_SEARCH? * KEY_SCREEN - switch between 4:3 and 16:9 ???
