Hello,

It looks to me like the keyboard support is actually completely messy.
SDL seems to work fine, but vnc, curses and the monitor sendkey command
are completely bogus as soon as one goes out from the simple [a-z]
range, even for US keyboards.  I'd just like to make sure of a few
things:

- can't monitor.c replace its get_keycode function with keymaps.c's
  stuff?
- is there some patch lying somewhere to make actual use of the "shift"
  qualifiers in keymaps?

And then I'll try to find some time to fix the mess.

Samuel
