Hmm, yes, on my machines vol- generates ^[[26~, mute ^[[25~ and vol+ nothing.

Hmm, okay. 

Is it possible to have somehow get both keycodes and translated keys?
I guess I might want to define ctrl-alt-= as vol+ and ctrl-alt-- as
vol- for machines that do not have hardware keys.

Do you have example code using event interface, somewhere?
