Ascii Control Key Codes

These definitions define how various control keys are mapped to ASCII key codes. Not all key presses generate an ASCII value, so plugin code should be prepared to see null characters come from the keyboard...this usually represents a key stroke that has no equivalent ASCII, like a page-down press. Use virtual key codes to find these key strokes.

ASCII key codes take into account modifier keys; shift keys will affect capitals and punctuation; control key combinations may have no vaild ASCII and produce NULL. To detect control-key combinations, use virtual key codes, not ASCII keys.
