{\bf Note:} If a key down ({\tt EVT\_KEY\_DOWN}) event is caught and
-the event handler does not call {\tt event.Skip()} then the coresponding
+the event handler does not call {\tt event.Skip()} then the corresponding
char event ({\tt EVT\_CHAR}) will not happen. This is by design and
enables the programs that handle both types of events to be a bit
simpler.

\constfunc{int}{GetKeyCode}{\void}
Returns the virtual key code. ASCII events return normal ASCII values,
while non-ASCII events return values such as {\bf WXK\_LEFT} for the
