This event class contains information about keypress (character) events.

+Notice that there are three different kinds of keyboard events in wxWidgets:
key down and up events and char events. The difference between the first two
is clear - the first corresponds to a key press and the second to a key
release - otherwise they are identical. Just note that if the key is
$1$, the ASCII value of this key combination.
You may discover how the other keys on your system behave interactively by

in any of the text controls shown in it.
{\bf Note:} If a key down ({\tt EVT\_KEY\_DOWN}) event is caught and
enables the programs that handle both types of events to be a bit
simpler.

{\bf Tip:} be sure to call {\tt event.Skip()} for events that you don't process in
key event function, otherwise menu shortcuts may cease to work under Windows.
\constfunc{long}{GetX}{\void}
-Returns the X position of the event.
+Returns the X position (in client coordinates) of the event.

-Returns the Y position of the event.
+Returns the Y (in client coordinates) position of the event.

\constfunc{void}{GetPosition}{\param{long *}{x}, \param{long *}{y}}
-Obtains the position at which the key was pressed.
