SDL_!KeyboardEvent- Keyboard event structure
!!STRUCTURE DEFINITION


typedef struct{
Uint8 type;
Uint8 state;
SDL_keysym keysym;
} SDL_!KeyboardEvent;
!!STRUCTURE DATA


__type SDL_KEYDOWN__ or __SDL_KEYUP__


__state SDL_PRESSED__ or __SDL_RELEASED__


__keysym__ Contains key press information
!!DESCRIPTION


__SDL_!KeyboardEvent__ is a member of the __SDL_Event__
union and is used when an event of type __SDL_KEYDOWN__
or __SDL_KEYUP__ is reported.


The __type__ and __state__ actually report the same
information, they just use different values to do it! A
keyboard event occurs when a key is released
(__type__=__SDK_KEYUP__ or
__state__=__SDL_RELEASED__) and when a key is pressed
(__type__=__SDL_KEYDOWN__ or
__state__=__SDL_PRESSED__). The information on what
key was pressed or released is in the __keysym__
structure.


__Note:__


Repeating __SDL_KEYDOWN__ events will occur if key repeat
is enabled (see __SDL_!EnableKeyRepeat__).
