Here goes! Thanks for having a look. Don't hesitate to comment if anything does not conform to your ideas. One caveat: Committing this now may break compilability of some video drivers - specifically, if they use any of the SDLK_* codes that were obsoleted and moved into SDL_compat.h. I only tried Cocoa (which did break, but is already fixed) and X11 (which didn't, but then its key handling is #iffed out). If that's a problem, it may need to go into a branch. -Christian
