+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+The \fBSDL_keysym\fR structure is used by reporting key presses and releases since it is a part of the \fI\fBSDL_KeyboardEvent\fR\fR\&.
+.PP
+The \fBscancode\fR field should generally be left alone, it is the hardware dependent scancode returned by the keyboard\&. The \fBsym\fR field is extremely useful\&. It is the SDL-defined value of the key (see \fISDL Key Syms\fR\&. This field is very useful when you are checking for certain key presses, like so: 
+.PP
+.nf
+\f(CW\&.
+\&.
+while(SDL_PollEvent(&event)){
+  switch(event\&.type){
+    case SDL_KEYDOWN:
+      if(event\&.key\&.keysym\&.sym==SDLK_LEFT)
+        move_left();
+      break;
+    \&.
+    \&.
+    \&.
+  }
+}
+\&.
+\&.\fR
+.fi
+.PP
+ \fBmod\fR stores the current state of the keyboard modifiers as explained in \fI\fBSDL_GetModState\fP\fR\&. The \fBunicode\fR is only used when UNICODE translation is enabled with \fI\fBSDL_EnableUNICODE\fP\fR\&. If \fBunicode\fR is non-zero then this a the UNICODE character corresponding to the keypress\&. If the high 9 bits of the character are 0, then this maps to the equivalent ASCII character: 
+.PP
+.nf
+\f(CWchar ch;
+if ( (keysym\&.unicode & 0xFF80) == 0 ) {
+  ch = keysym\&.unicode & 0x7F;
+}
+else {
+  printf("An International Character\&.
+");
+}\fR
+.fi
+.PP
+ UNICODE translation does have a slight overhead so don\&'t enable it unless its needed\&.
